You are saying Jackson, like Lucas, has no one to give him a dose of reality? I doubt that's true. Also, generalizations like "nobody" and assumptions and generalizations like "never" about him and his crew are unreliable unless you are privy or there was an interview with such admissions. It all leads up to a hyperbolic argument heavy with fallacies and no basis in fact. So I would just take more care in your indictment.
Assuming all your facts are true, how do you know "nobody" likes it? If, Jackson does, as you say, that makes at least one. How do you know he and his crew never saw any problems? How do you know no one questioned him about it? Why would WB overrule Jackson if they also see value in it, pushing your "nobody" even further out of line. Is it really a gamble? Or just an introduction to a long term strategy? How do you know which? The movie isn't out yet, so how do you know it's a flop? It might be, but we don't know that yet. The showing of 48 FPS was a long time ago to a limited crowd before the movie was even completed.
48 FPS is closer to the truth in terms of vision. I suspect it's more about change than anything else, as people say, like sound, color, and digital clarity of both versus their older mediums. I'm going to give it a chance, but only after seeing a 2D showing first at 24 FPS. I think that would be fair, if not a cynical double-dip by the studios. Then we can make our own subjective judgments, but we shouldn't base our arguments on things we don't know.
Your last question is a good one because it is the only sentence that does not make generalizations and assumptions.
