The fact of the matter is, running at a higher frame rate makes things look smoother. Period, end of statement.

That's not an accurate generalization. Higher frame rate != smoother display in all cases. It matters for progressive elements (flash movies, games like Quake) but that statement is not applicable to other forms of media.

If you take a time-based animation inside a 30fps movie and a 60 fps movie, the 60 fps version will look a lot smoother.

In Flash yes. I just want to say for the record that this argument has absolutely nothing to do with braodcast/animation work. In the context of Flash, sure, it will look smoother.

It's not an opinion, it's a fact.

Fact for a limited set of time-based animation systems - primarily games and content like Flash that display progressive frames without motion blur.
