That reminds me of the PS3 with the 3D blu rays.
At first it was not possible to read them and they were saying it's impossible without a 1.4 HDMI connection.
They after they sold their first super expensive Sony 3D blu ray players they came with en uptake to allow the PS3 to read 3D blu rays with its old blu ray player and its 1.3 HDMI connection.

Errr..... thats not what happened.

3D blurays were part of the bluray specification. It was a feature built into tbe co fines of the specification. As long as a players firmware could support it then it would work as long as said player also adhered to the set specifications of the Blu-ray standard. 

the advantage the PS3 had over every other existing player at the time was that it had an update able firmware. I don't think it was ever a thing that the PS3 wouldn't handle 3D movies when sony also championed 3D games on the PS3.

I'm guessing this is all coming from a belief you have that Sony is somehow only doing this because they want to sell "super expensive" UHD players before patching the feature into the much cheaper PS4..... you are wrong.
