How will you ever make out that level of difference in a print of any size?
I can barely, if at all, see any difference with a 200% crop, which is
surely pixel peeper extremus!

After all, only the print counts in the end, and I agree with this:

"The craft is part of the process. The image is a completion of the
process. The print is the fulfillment of the process" - John Sexton
