The caps alone show that some sort of artificial sharpening was done (whether it was ai or not). Fine detail wouldn’t look like it does otherwise.
The grain also doesn’t look great. It should look more organic and refined. Whether that was due to the “additional remastering” done for this transfer, compression deficiencies (the bitrate is a bit low for a film source), or both, it’s unclear.

Altogether making the image strangely sharp and artificial looking on my 4k projector.
I'm almost done ripping it to my computer so I should have screenshots soon.
Edit: Just went back and read some of the posts and I see there have been other screenshots posted. So I will just show a couple of random ones.

Just look at his hand holding the phone in the full size image. Is that supposed to be hair? The artificial sharpening is definitely there.
