I don't quite understand why the settings have to conform to what you want, that's not really the point on PC. It's to offer a wide range of settings so anyone from an entry level PC to the most expensive builds can be satisfied. Also as of this year Dell is selling 8K monitors, of course it's not mass market yet but the future is closer than you think.

I also don't see how this is somehow getting in the way of fixing the PS4 version, if anything you should argue that by Square making a PC version in the first place they're taking away the resources to make the PS4 game better.

Settings must conform to what I want because I'm the freaking center of the universe and what I want is what matters. That and nothing else...

Ok I can sense that you are not happy with my answer so let me rephrase in a less selfish manner.

It's not about what I want, it's about the norms and 2K going to 4K is the current norm, therefore conforming to those established standards seems to be the correct way to do it. Undershooting with the Switch and overshooting with an 8K version seems like they are missing the point. IMO of course.

No, I can't go that way, I'm sticking with my selfish rejoinder, It makes me feel happier.

First, lay off the sarcasm.

Second, the problem with your norms argument is that what Square is doing is the norm on PC. It's common for new games to offer settings meant only for the strongest and most expensive PCs such as 8K. But this isn't a problem because no one is forced to play at 8K, as easily as Square can make high end settings they can also make settings for low end PCs or in the middle for 1080p or 4K.
