Paul,
I agree, but I'm not thinking quite as technically as you seem to be. I'm thinking about the perceived looks of film and digital. I think a typical perception of the digital look has to do with depth of field, the linear dynamic range, absence of focus/exposure errors and/or artifacts like grain, dust, scratches, and other evidence of film processing, etc. In film (motion picture) circles, there's not much debate about whether film and video have different looks, for some of the same reasons. I know, video and digital are different things, and I'm not trying to prove there is a digital look, or define what it might be, but suggesting there might be more to the question than the results of exceeding the limitations of the media.
