This isn't in line what what others photographers (including myself) see.
Many respectable sources estimate 35mm to approach 24MP in the best conditions with specific film, 120 to be in the 40-80MP range, and 4x5 to be 100-300MP.
To address some of your other points: good LF glass can approach 70/70/50 line pairs per mm which is still really good, diffraction doesn't affect resolution as much as some people think, and f11-f16 is the sweet spot on a lot of modern LF glass - you don't need long exposures with those apertures and Portra 400, for example.
Honestly, the claim that 35mm film can achieve 24MP of resolution is pretty wild. That might be the theoretical resolving limit (depending on how exactly you translate lpm to megapixels, which is not so trivial), but no real world comparison that I've seen has ever shown 35mm film resolving as much details as a 24MP digital camera.
As far as what photographers like you are "seeing", then for goodness sake, if you are actually seeing 35mm film capture the same amount of detail as a 24MP DSLR, let's see the photos!
