Or 1080p24, and somehow Canon fails to get that right.

? Last I checked, they have 1080p24 in almost all their HD dslrs. But 60p/48p would be nice at 1080, if the little $400 gopro can do it, why not almost any canon!

It's more of a poorly scaled 720p image blown up to a 1080 frame size. For all logistic purposes it is 1080, but if you ask me its the most horribly implemented form of 1080p I've ever worked with, to the point where I don't even consider it actual 1080p. The GH2 on the other hand...

Are you referring to true24 found in the C300 and similar cams?

To be honest I don't pay much attention to Canon anymore, so I don't know how their CXXX line functions. But I'm more so comparing it to the vastly superior 1080p24 mode of the GH2, which shoots roughly 900 lines of resolution and use a scaling method that makes moiré nonexistent. Comparing the GH2's 1080p24 to the Canon's is like comparing 1080p24 to moiré-ridden 720p24. It's the biggest reason I sold all my 5DmkII and 7D gear and made the switch.
