Phil is right. 

I think that sometimes there is some confusion in terminology.
Technically resolution refers to bit-depth (i.e. the precision of each
sample) and sampling rate refers to the number samples per time unit.
The combination of high bit- and samplingrates should perhaps be called
high-definition (audio)? 

Anyway according to the Lavry paper very high sampling rates actually
results in lower precision, i.e. resolution. 

But then there is the speed argument. I.e. the necessity of extremely
high sampling rates in capturing transients. I haven't really seen any
technical arguments, but it should be possible to approximately measure
how long the attack of a snare drum or whatever lasts and compare it to
the sampling rate.
