Second, the insistence on analyzing sensors at the pixel level makes no sense. Bayer sensor designers are using smaller pixels both to increase resolution and to reduce aliasing. These advances are ignored in the “compression ratio” analysis, hopelessly skewing the results.

1:1 viewing matters on any screens, because that avoids interpolation, which is essentially weighted averaging, which is essentially smoothing.

So what?

What if you crop an image?

What if you print an image?

In most cases amateurs don't do that.

The primary way for amateurs to "consume" their images is looking at a screen.

Printed 10x15cm photo albums are ancient history (except for the older generation).
