Heck, why not add another category for 4K finishes that actually have 4K VFX so we know we're getting REALLY TRULY REAL 4K?
As was said, those "Nearly" 4k titles are still 4k masters, just the CG or certain scenes might be less than 4k. (which im ok with to be honest)

The fully "real" 4k masters will be fully 4k, including any CG.

The "fake" 4k releases are basically just 2k upscale nonsense. (which I will never buy out of principle)

Even the 3.2k stuff is a big improvement over 2k upscales or standard blu rays.

"Life" is just a unique case since its a 3.2k master instead of a full 4k master. Probably since the CG is 3.2k and in order to help everything look more uniform, they decided to make a 3.2k master instead of having 4k shots mixed with 3.2k cg.
