4k Blu-rays are HEVC, which is one of the most efficient codecs available.
They do use a much higher bitrate than streaming services tend to use, but the streaming versions are sacrificing some quality to save bandwidth.

But yeah, the situation isn't nearly as ridiculous as it was with older 1080p Blu-Rays.
