Surely old designs were already good enough with this but marketing has to create problems to solve. You see that even me suddenly wurries about things that most likely not matter :) We can phantasy around even more. Lets assume we use a filter that filters softly at 20kHz for downsampling and i play it at my Transporter. From a measurement at stereoplay i see it filters 44.1kHz material steep around 20.8kHz. Since my SoX resampling setting kicks in at ~20.28kHz the ringing of the 20.8kHz Transporter filter should not matter because there is no loud content left to trigger but we get very theoretical here.
