The pixel shift looks much better than without so there may still be room for improvement. Probably not at any normal print sizes for 4x5 but if you did the same for 35mm it might. Like say you wanted to print 30x40 at 300DPI, that would need a 8500DPI scan and more if you wanted to crop.
>the downscaling algorithm could get confusedonly if your downscaling algorithm is shit
Found this interesting dry vs wet comparison in "Film grain, resolution and fundamental film particles". I wonder if oversampling and then downscaling (maybe with some specific algorithm to reduce the refracted grain effects) could bring dry scanning more in line with wet mounting.
