Perhaps the benefit we get is access to existing recordings?

44.1khz exists because it was the lowest technically practical speed and was an optimization for processing speed and storage space.

48khz exists because it syncs with video easily — I’ve also heard it allows for more tolerance in the anti-aliasing filter.

I guess meaning 24fps video? Because 44100 is already a multiple of 25, 30, 50, and 60.

24fps is where the money is because 24fps is the standard for film.

48k also supports 24, 48, 120, and 240 which are all nice to haves.
