Well obviously there are exceptions but according to the steam hardware survey, only 1,9% of its users are gaming at native 4k, while over 80% is using 1080p or 1440p. But my question was more related to game development. Wouldn't native 4k suck up way too much resources and limit a developer's ambitions on what they can do on these next gen consoles? 

I've already told people my stance on the Steam survey, so it's a waste of time throwing that out in a discussion with me. It's incomplete.

In regards to game development — no. 4K wouldn't be a waste of resources. In fact, in 2020, it is where things should be.

That doesn't make sense. Why could, or should these next gen console aim for native 4k when even a 2080Ti can't even hit 60fps on current gen games at that resolution? I'm not even talking about RT, as that would cut that framerate by another 50%. We would practically be playing the same games we're playing now lol.
