Mac,
What you have described above is obviously 2700 PPI. 4k PPI for something
the size of a 35mm film gives you ~4k x ~6k, or 24M PIXELS, or 72M byte
files...as you say, significantly exceeds that...
Who, on earth, came up with a claim of calling something 2700PPI, "4k", and
what film recorder is it that makes such a claim?
Cripes, can there be more misinformation in an industry?
