You bring up an interesting point Marty. Theoretically long GOP compression works better with progressive frames. But I've learned that Canon's HDV implementation is so rock solid that no one's really broken it. However, that doesn't change the fundamentals of compression and interlaced imagery. So while you might get a sharpness increase shooting 60i you may also take a compression hit.
On one hand...
And on the other...
