So they are undoing what has been done, and redoing it because they did not have a one chip solution ready. This is arguably flawed.

At some point an interlaced signal has to be deinterlaced, whether it be at the player or the display. That's just one conversion. The 1080p signal coming out of the player should pass through the display without further deinterlacing. I fail to see where the extra conversion is. Are you saying the Samsung takes the 1080p data from the disk and converts it to 1080i then converts it back to a 1080p signal? If that's the case then the Samsung is indeed brain damaged.
