and if you can access your server outside the home. If out of the home, it will depend on your upload speed at home (server location), and your data speed to the device you're using. Of course this depends on WHERE you're playing your media too, if at home then should be no problem with my solution.
This way you don't need multiple copies, and KODI will pretty much just play anything without the massive overheads that transcoding in plex requires. My alternative is to use plex up until the point where it struggles with transcoding, and if that happens, switch to using KODI for those files that have trouble transcoding.
IMO IF you think you might want to have media be available at 1080p that you have in 4k, you'd be better off re-coding the 4k media so you have a 4k copy and a 1080p copy if using plex. Transcoding introduces many variables, and with a passmark of 17000 being the recommendation for 4K 10 bit HDR to transcode to 1080p 10mbps, that is a tall order. then it's just streaming, not transcoding.
