Games do use smaller textures for smaller objects. "4k texture" has little to no meaning.

What would be nice is if high res textures were optional and it downloaded assets in order so you could start playing the tutorial without waiting for everything to be downloaded (like origin)

Games should use smaller textures for smaller objects, but don't, like, audit that shit, and routinely end up having some of them way over-res anyway.
