They did a simple 4k scan of the nitrate negative.  They did no cleanup work and no 8k as for other films that they have done.

It was simply a way to preserve the negative so when it goes bye bye like steamboat willie at least they have the digital files.

Is there any point doing an 8k scan on a 1.37:1 35mm?
I thought 4k was the limit of detail for that stock and 8k is used for wider formats.
