Ukraine Screen Aspect Ratio ... What is the ideal?

It's time for ultrawide 4K TVs to return and save us from black bars in movies

Is the guy from that article into something that "some hard-core cinephiles" want; 21:9 ultrawide TVs?
Shoot your thoughts freely.

In the past I mentioned "Adaptive Screen TVs" ... motorized TVs that can adapt to any film aspect ratio; just push the correct number on your remote (or speak directly to it) and bingo, your TV would automatically extend, stretch, shrink, up, down, sideways, ... to your request.
...Similar to a very very thin rolling OLED TV.

No more black bars horizontally and vertically, forever period.
And no more front projectors because those flat rollable thin panels can go up to 400 inches if you want to.
Wanna watch 'Gone With The Wind' in its proper aspect ratio? No problemo and without vertical black bars.
Wanna watch 'The Hateful Eight' in 2.76:1 aspect? No problemo; let the TV do its magical stuff.

Sure, that could take few years, but we got time.
I'm not talking 8K or 3D or holographic moving pictures here; I'm talking smart intelligent Adaptive TVs for home, including IMAX screen aspect ratio.

What do you think? Any opinion is welcome; from the most outrageous to the most down-to-earth.

How far are we ready to evolve when it comes to watching movies @ home ...
This is not for the latest smartphones with expendable screens; this is for home screens used in our home theater rooms, living rooms and computer/gaming rooms.

Lawrence of Arabia, Casablanca, Citizen Kane, All That Jazz.
