27" 4K screens are nice, but I am spoiled by the 27" 5K on my iMac. It's so much nicer. Even though it's hard to resolve the individual pixels from a 27" 4K from a relatively short distance, "vernier acuity" does allow us to discern a shaper image …

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I understood display scaling affects UI elements only. Content elements (photos, pdfs, cad, etc) are (or can be) displayed at native resolution. The lines in Autocad on my 27" 5K iMac look about as sharp as a laser print…
