And 480p - 600p should be good enough for people like Goopy sitting 20 feet away from their TV.

But 720p on Lockhart (for games which are 1440p on Series X) are unplayable in his opinion.

720p is fine for me as well from the couch. At 12ft, 65", WiiU still looks good.
Plus my cable provider is still at 720p / 1080i, still looks good.

So sure, make it 720p on Lockhart. The trick is, 720p scales up very nicely to a 4K tv. 1080p tv not so nicely.
1440p is also 1.5:1 scaling to 4K (same as 720p to 1080p), but since the dpi is much higher it's less of a problem with scaling.
Time for 8K tvs to make 1440p upscaling 3:1 :)
