With film the limiting factors in resolution are the size of the

digital it is the size of the individual sensor elements, the
smallest of which are far larger than the crystals in any modern
film.
In digital the appearance of sharpness is created by the firmware/
software used to process the image, not by lens resolution. I think
that lens contrast is far more important for digital than raw
resolution.
The above two paragraphs qualify you for burning at the stake, with
a free sachet of barbeque sauce.
So long as the sauce is liberally laced with Jack Daniels, bring it on!
