Yes, it would be.
Ruining images by cutting off entire parts of the color spectrum and scaling with a sharpness setting which introduces heavy ringing is not an advantage.
that's not what he said though?
You're talking about the xbone version having sharpening, he's talking about the ps4 version being blurry
they are both shit in their own unique special way
for unique and different reasons
it's the thin leper vs the obese young man
lepracy is still bad and there is no point comparing it to the fat guy.
the lessons people should be taking here are:
-there is no fix for scaling blur, the only way to deal with is to avoid it by making sure you don't have to scale, sharpening only adds another problem on top of it
-there is no shortcut to fixing aliasing, to reduce jaggies and pixel crawling and shimmering you need more pixel samples , post process blur filters only add another problem on top of them and do nothing to relieve temporal aliasing like shimmering and moiree (look at the far away stairs in one of the pictures to see what moiree is, and look the power lines to see shimmering) anyway
You go native res or you go home, and you use real AA or you use none at all.
