Sure. They could insist on going to screens with 4K projectors. They could boycott digital IMAX. They could write long-winded letters to whoever runs the theaters about how dissatisfied they are with the 2K presentation quality, they could write letters to the studios about how unhappy they are with the continued widespread use of 2K mastering.
But they don't. I've never heard anyone bring up the matter outside these forums. Every time I go to a digital IMAX or a 2K->70mm blowup IMAX show it's packed. Because 2K looks just fine for 99% of the movie-watching population.
