Since Netflix never (edit: rarely) releases Blu-Rays for their original content, there's no source to produce high-quality versions of their 4K content right? Could be wrong but I thought webrips that screen capture are relatively low quality because they're reencoding a video that's already being compressed for streaming.

Don't know if I notice these things much personally but if someone already cares about 1080p vs 4K they probably would.

The scene has ways of getting the data without reencoding. Look for web dl.

This is still far less bitrate than the equivalent BluRay. Netflix dropped their 4k bitrate during COVID and never looked back.

This is the difference between “rip” and “DL”. You can certainly pull content from Netflix without re-encoding.
