Not sure what you mean by upscaling.

then you shouldn't be writing software.

I assume you're refering to my
method of designing software to act maximally according to the
available screen resolution, i.e. - computing a point for each
available screen pixcel and nothing else.

no.

If a higher resolution screen comes into popular use, I'll just adjust
my software to include the new resolution as an add choice to the
existing resolutions.

it did, many years ago.

you also should be auto-detecting the window size, which can change at
any time, as can the display resolution for that matter.

No big deal and it will always look perfect and run the fastest.

based on what you've said, no.
