QA still has to be done yes but it was a quick summary of what people are seeing with the two settings, it can't be argued that this move this saves developer a lot of time tinkering as the is already a base setting for them to look at rather than create the game and try to scale everything themselves. This shows the engine has base settings for each mode for the platform for performance much like high and low settings on a PC to make things easier for developers as then they can adjust portable base settings accordingly if the game requires it.

Ehh... yes and no. If you actually think these are the only settings that need to be adjusted in order to properly optimize the engine for each mode, then you're kidding yourself. But it's an extremely basic start to help developers.

QA in the gaming industry unfortunately doesn't get paid for shit so the cost won't be too bad, time wise though, will be interesting depending on how big the game is, but for the most part, it'd just function like PS4-PS4 Pro mode or PC presets, only easier to work with since it's literally just 2 settings instead of a whole list of shit.
