Why would you want a dual-mode screen?

So, if you can already treat your 4K screen as a native 1080p panel for gaming, what’s the point of a dual-mode screen? There are several reasons, but the key one is refresh rate.

It basically has to simulate the downscaling, as unlike an old analogue CRT screen
