Am I the only one that can can see that this 1360x1080p rez is practically the same thing as 1600x900p??
Why the strange aspect ratio though? Is it just for marketing so they can just say 1080p or are theer technical reasons like not using the XB1s scalar at all since its a dynamic resolution. Is that even possible? Cause the scaler will still need to upscale the 1360x1080p rez... and it would be doing just as much work as it needed to do for a 900p upscale. So I don't get the point.
Edit:
Oh I think I get it now. When not a lot of action is going on output at native 1080p. The eye candy moments. Once the action picks up, switch to upscaled 1080p. And assume the gamer will be too busy to see the difference. Pretty ingenious if you ask me.

That's because 1360x1080 is the same as 1600x900 in regards to pixel counts. (Also drop the P in these cases.)
In this case they just reduce and increase the horizontal lines depending on whats happening on screen, if they were to swap between say... 1600x900 and 1920x1080, it would actually probably be more obvious due to vertical and horizontal lines both increasing/decreasing.
