Totally agree, but then
Is internally inconsistent!
If 4k is four times the pixel count of 1080, then 2k means 1440 (-ish, it should be 1530) - that's fine. But then 8k must be 3050, but it is actually 4320!!!
So it can not refer to the number of pixels (quadratic scaling). On the other hand, if we assume linear scaling and 8k is 4320 and 4k is 2160, then 2k is 1080 - but 2k is never used in that context!
Edit: as you can see I'm very passionate about this XD
Eww, who refers to 1440p as 2k? 1080p is 2k. Not that anyone really says 2k to begin with.
That said, that particular instance is irrelevant as long as things are consistent going forward.
2048x1080 is DCI 2K.
The slight difference between the ratios is why home releases of films often have small black bars at the top and bottom, as the DCI flat ratio is slightly different than 16:9.
