> I am certainly not going to celebrate the reduction in image quality
What about perceived image quality? If you are just playing the game chances of you noticing anything (unless you crank up the upscaling to the maximum) are near zero.
People have different sensitivities. For me personally, the reduction in image quality is very noticeable.
I am playing on a 55” TV at computer monitor distance, so the difference between a true 4K image and an upscaled one is very significant.
