To OP’s point it’s shortsighted they’d accept a Mark I FS7 vs. nearly any image any Alexa has ever produced. The extra .8k it lacks on paper is more than made up in overall image quality.
I guess this list is not exhaustive or they are more flexible with their major films, because of the Netflix films that I've heard of from 2021 some were shot with the Alexa Mini, which isn't on the list. One was shot partly on Betamax, partly on super 8 film.
