Going to 3000mm you will have 1.1 arc seconds of sky on the same Bayer group. Our double star from before is within easy reach.

Do you really have to cover the whole Byer group?
I think individual pixel sizes are the resolution limitation for luminance. The whole Byer group is resolution limit for chrominance.. not much different from analogue TV stuff (where BW for chrominance signal is 1/3 of that of luminance). De-Byering process should take care of that...
