The best Atmos setup would be one that utilises up to 34 speakers in total in a 24.1.10 configuration. With this in mind then your assumption would be to dismiss any setup with fewer than 10 Atmos speakers so you'd be looking at spendin close to £100K if wanting to have such a setup, not the mention that you'd also need a room large enough to accomodate such a configuration.
Maybe post back to wherever you are getting the idea that you need or musy have 4 Atmos speakers and suggest to them that they actually need 10 and see if they still support the ideal that the only setups worth fascilitating are those that correspond with what equipment they have at their disposal.
You only need a minimium of a 5.1.2 setup to enable you to experience the additional immersion and presence associated with Atmos. Adding just 2 Atmos speakers will introduce more immersion than if not using them so you do not need 4 (or more) Atmos speakers to experience Atmos. Ypu may get an even better immersive experience if using more Atmos speakers and back surrounds, but this is different to suggesting that it isn't worth bothing with if only able to add 2 Atmos speakers or if unable to have more than a 5.1.2 setup.
