Forgot to mention: some open matte versions has the intended widescreen area not centered - for example, Timeline is almost always on top of the screen; in those cases, cropping top and bottom will crop intended widescreen image on top, while showing unintended area on bottom...

That's true. This is the case in Dark Knight as well. In fact, the Open Matte IMAX scenes of the UHD don't even show the entire image of the scope version in at least one scene (the scene where you see the cars approaching the burning truck filmed from a helicopter (I presume)). In that scene, the scope version shows an image part that is so far down in the Open Matte frame that it shows extra information compared to the UHD.

But I would argue that traditionally, when stuff was still shot on film, you would have your Open Matte prints and they would be matted in cinema, for example to 16:9. Now, I'm not sure, but I doubt that they adjusted those prints such that you would always have the "correct" framing for the matted display, as this would create black bars/missing image when viewed unmatted. I imagine this would also complicate the production process.

Which would bring up the question, at least for older films, whether the different scope positioning is theatrically accurate to at least the Open Matte prints.

This worth a new thread on its own, I guess!
