Okay maybe you can help me out here. If a game is pushing Series X to its limits at 1440p/30fps, what resolution would they need to scale down to on Series S (with the same graphics settings) to hit the same framerate? 

Probably 720p/30 fps if they are lazy or 800p to 900p with additional tweaks.

It also depends how much headroom the 1440p/30fps has. If 35 - 40 fps are possible for the Series X unlocked and they lock it down to 30 fps for consistency, 800p/30 fps with the same settings or 900p - 1080p with additional tweaks could be possible.

But don't you need roughly twice the processing power to go from 720p to 1440p and hit the same 30fps? Also, for argument sake, lets say that game is 100% optimized on Series X and there's no head room to play with. It's a visual spectacle that pushes Series X to its limits and even has some drops here and there below 30fps, just like we're seeing with most console games today.
