I just realized that, since Joel is putting a GUIDE together and not distributing full video files, there's room for several different AVIsynth scripts and several different target frame rates, with notes on why people might want to select - or not select - each one.
I'd also love to see some examples of what happens when an interlaced frame gets put through AI upscaling.
Oh and I just noticed this article:

This is known as judder. Judder sucks.

WHOA WHOA WHOA, no. That's NOT what judder is. Judder is when p24 content is displayed on a 60 hz device, or when telecined film content is bobbed or field-matched to p60, resulting in half of the frames lasting 1/20th of a second and the other half lasting 1/30th of a second, alternating, instead of each one lasting 1/24th of a second. It's not noticeable to humans, although some people claim it is. When you take higher-framerate (p30, i60) content and decimate it down to 24, that's called a "war crime".
