The "best of both worlds" would also be possible.

They could make a 64MP bayer-pattern sensor, with rgb or even rgbw pattern, and then combine every square of 2x2 pixels to form a 16MP image that still does not take up more space on the memory card but that would be free from moiré artifacts and that would have more or less the same low noise (because binning pixels reduces noise).

But everyone would be screaming for access to all 64MP for their images...
