It is hard to sell a new TV without some new gimmick. And yes, I have a 4K TV and virtually all TVs are now 4K so you don’t have a choice. The limit for visual acuity for a 4K 65” TV is about 5 feet. Beyond that you won’t detect any improvement. Refresh rate may make a difference on some action sports. Regarding 8K TVs, they are just like 4K TVs - if you sit close enough you can see the difference. There is a relationship between the set size, the set resolution, and how close you sit to the set. Why do you think smart phones have such an outrageously high number DPI?
