Better than 4x5 chromes than you "sometimes get" is no doubt true. We
should be discussing first-rate work only as otherwise we really can't
make useful comparisons. And you are now talking about multi-shot
technique. As I said, this is a high-quality approach, though some may
find it inconvenient for high-volume work. For large paintings several
feet across one may require a very large capture, which in the past
was accomplished with 8x10 or larger film (including the incomparable
Polaroid 20x24 camera). Today there are other systems, but remember
that capture area is capture area, whether analog or digital, done in
one shot or assembled from many, and the larger the painting the
larger the capture you'll need--you can't fake it.

When we compare the color and sharpness that we get from a MF
digital back, using a multi shot system, it is without a doubt
better than the 4 x 5 chromes that we sometimes get.
As for museums not using MF digital backs, I don't know. There are
some pretty well-known museums that are. http://www.hasselblad.com/user-showcase/the-multi-shot--the-museum.aspx
