Ah, OK, your points about projectors are well-taken. If you can get a 72hz refresh rate out of a projector (something my TV set won't do), then it's true that you can eliminate 3:2 pulldown judder. But in my particular case, I can't make use of that feature.
As far as higher resolutions go, that's all well and good, but upsampling an image that's inherently 480 lines to begin with will produce artifacts (such as softness) unless you're doing even-multiples. I prefer to have my 480 lines be sent to the screen at 1:1.
