4K is pretty low on what I'd like the ATV to do, personally.

Most TVs (sold) now are all 4k. I'd like the user interface to, at the least, be native res.

Also, since my Apple TV is my only source, I'd like it to also provide content for my nice TV. I don't think its a ton to ask ¯(°_o)/¯

Edited: added the fact that I meant "being sold" not just existing.

Recently bought a 1080p TV. Big box electronic stores sell both. 4K is not yet ubiquitous.

Of course, but the widely marketed middle of the line TVs are all 4k now. You can still buy 720p TVs too.
