You can walk across the room, thumb through a CD collection, pull a disc out of the case, and put it into your 2U rack-sized CD player.

True. But vinyl album art is bigger, which is nice if you are interested in having a cool collection of art/objects.

If you scan a 5" CD album cover at 2400 DPI, you get a 12000x12000 image, from which you can probably render a reasonable poster, if you like.

And if it wasn't printed that fine in the first place, then you have a different problem.

that doesn't make it a collectible!

I don't believe that you really think that's a practical alterative.
