d) . A simple explanation is that it would be nice to go from 640*480 to 1280*960 but not necessarily "revolutionary" at first but after getting used to the higher resolution, it would be unthinkable to go back to 640*480, which implies that the utility you got from higher resolution improved by time.

For the last 4 years I've played 720p, even 1080p PS360 games, then swapped to 480p Wii games, and far from being unthinkable, it never even bothered me.
