The "illusion" is simply people being used to 24fps after it has been in use for so long.

Makeup and wardrobe and lighting are all impacted by frame rate.

You can see cheap set decoration at 48 fps. It disappears at 24 fps.

Had the same issue with when TV switched to HD. It is a bad argument.

I agree in part. I'd like to see movies shot at higher framerates if and only if the filmmaker can actually pull off a good result, but I suspect it isn't always viable.

I suspect it's almost always viable without much or any additional effort.
