There is less messing with the signal, less distortion

Most films are made at 24 frame/second. High def discs of both formats store most movies at 1080/24p. Since 60 isn't a multiple of 24, converting 24->60 causes motion distortions(Judder). It would be preferable if your TV accepted signals of 24 fps or multiples of 24, and played them back as such. Right now, few TVs accept 1080/24p.
That's a gross over simplification, and I'm sure others can give better details.
BTW, the full resolution of HD is 1920 X 1080.
