Nope, you will use lots more disk space with the 4:4:4 and far larger file sizes....
Yes, a lot more disk space, but still plenty of power over the color of the image.
Most will be mastering and finishing in 1080, which is about the same data rate as the .R3D file, and 2k is only slightly more. 2k is still a great finishing resolution, even for film out.
4k in 444 could be a bit cumbersome, but if the project requires it, it's still doable. No drop in picture quality vs. Redcode RAW as far as I know.
