That's just your opinion...

I have good eyesight, yet prefer 1920x1080 in my laptops:

- Larger resolutions are a significant battery drain.

- Larger resolutions are more GPU intensive, taking away precious system resources.

Also, the fact that this is a 15.6-inch display enables me to set zoom on VS Code and Firefox to 90%, still able to read everything but with more estate. I had an MBP Retina before and for the life of me I don't miss the extra pixels. I do miss the 16:10 aspect ratio, though.
