silly questions, certainly Canon won’t (can’t) change 4k crop via firmware. At most, we will hopefully get ai servo eye AF focusing capability.

I just can't believe that the best Canon can do in 2018 is the best they could do in 2016 which for the time wasn't as good as the competition. Sure, it may be a hardware limitation but that seems like something they would of had at least two years to address?

FPS is certainly a hardware limitation i.e. bandwidth limitation. They could have addressed but that would have required more expensive hardware and then a  higher price tag. With a high-end model having a significantly higher price tag, they can afford to build in better hardware.
