Based on my experience with 35mm, 120/220, and 4x5 film, digital has already exceeded it, in certain cases by a wide margin. I'm currently using FF cameras and a 645Z, and have used 4/3 and apsc in the past. 35mm was blown out of the water at least 10 years ago, and medium format film in 645 and 6x6 7 years ago, and 6x7 and 6x9 as well if you added in some additional post processing. Today, software advancements have prtty much done the same for 4x5.

Well....your experience is very different from mine.
Maybe in certain B+W films, but heavens no in color.
