I started using computers at 640x480, sometimes 800x600. 1024x768 was a blessing. Since then I’ve always cherished every extra pixel I could get. I would never dare use anything above 1x scale.
I’ve used a laptop that needed scaling despite only having a 1080p screen (because the screen was too small? Not sure) and now I’m certain I’m never purchasing a monitor that needs scaling.
To me, pushing 1080p but only having the screen real state of 1366x768 felt pretty dumb, on top of dealing with scaling woes being a pan in the ass in every OS

Once you get a high-DPI screen that’ll be over

It’ll be over one day and I don’t know how high the DPI will have to be, but I’m currently at 160 and I still see room for cramming in more pixels.
Nahhh you’re good eagle eye
I would consider 2K at 27" to be the sweet spot for 1x.
