No, it wouldn't make your point more obvious, it is totally contrary to your point.
"Going from 720p to 1440p will use around twice the resources, whereas SeriesX is 3 times more powerful."
Your point was that 1440p only needs 2x the resources of 720p and that 1/3 the performance of the Series X wouldn't be enough since 3 > 2.
But a perfect scaling engine would need 4x the resources for 4x the resolution. With a perfect scaling engine 1/3 the performance of the Series X would be enough since 3 < 4.
We all know that engines don't scale down perfect, but for most games you need around 1/3 performance for 1/4 resolution, not 1/2 performance for 1/4 resolution.
