That the Falcon zooms away at sublight means it would be easy to track.

Do you have anything to substantiate this or just your own musings?

ANH and TESB. If the hyperdrive is working the Falcon can escape. If it isn’t or isn’t used, the Falcon is easy to track and catch. The Empire did it several times. And the First Order can’t do it once? They loose them because they fly away from the planet? Bad writing. And the Falcon just happens to then break down, and Han and Chewy stumble on it (and ask where they got it when if they were that close to Jakku it would be kind of obvious). There is just no tension there after you see the Star Destroyer just sitting in orbit. If the hyperdrive had worked for a few seconds and then quit, the rest of the story would make sense. Without something else, it just stretches things too far. Unless Inspector Clouseau was in charge of finding BB-8. It is that level of bumbling.

They were looking for the Falcon in ESB and SW. In TFA, they were aboard a stolen freighter. Could’ve looked like normal traffic out of Jakuu.

Better to talk about something related to the 4k, technically, than some vaporware announcement from
speculation, or books, or screenings.

FACT : 4k restorations have been done.

FACT : No official announcements have been made about it.

FACT : Previews of versions have been shown.

FACT : 4k restorations are also being done by other people.

SPECULATION : 4k release will be made.

SPECULATION : An announcement about 4k release will be made.

SPECULATION : Restoration is for the original versions.
