4K UHDs that look worse than their BD counterparts?

Which "poison" are you and others picking?

If the UHD is worth picking up, then I will. So, if a guest wants to see Oblivion at its best, all things considered, then do you screen the blu or the UHD?

Both, you let them watch the blu ray first and tell them "alright, now try to remember all that detail you just watched and use your mind to integrate it with this HDR and WCG you're about to watch"

Pick one and only one. Which do you go for?

If I had to chose one, I would go with the blu, because I feel can manipuate the brightness, contrast and color to somewhat resemble the UHD, but I cant improve detail. But how much can be attributed to the upscaling by the TV and/or player? A good upscale on a blu ray minimizes the benefits of the UHD counterpart.
