I suppose I can visualize an algorithm to rescale and interpolate at baseband spatially or temporally for example the CBS field sequential system, it blows my mind to think you would be able to accurately realize in firmware the correct relationship between the the baseband luma and properly interleaved chroma!

I thought an FPGA implementation would be a bit over the top in this case. I suppose I am old school still thinking of a firmly hardware based implementation. For component 525 video, no rescaling would be required and fairly basic hardware following early 50's guidelines (but in solid state) would have been most appropriate.
