As a primarilly PC user, the difference between 900p and 1080p is obvious to me, as is the difference between 1080p and the more or less standard 1440p i play at.

I don't believe the PC upscales the resolution the same way consoles do.  I think the PC just stretches the image.  If I set Dota2 to 900p, it just looks horrible.  The difference is nothing like that for consoles. 

It would depend on your video card and monitor, but I guarantee you that the image isn't just stretched.

I have a gtx 770 so I can max it fine now.  Before I had something that I could max at 900p, or play at 1080p with low settings.  I usually used 900p, but the size of everything was just so different.

Here, this is uncompressed pics showing exactly how similiar the two are for consoles. Upscaled is a bit more blurry, but when you are actually playing, you won't tell.  Which is why I hate this debate.
