Just curious, did you grow up in the era of crt low pixel games? I suspect there is some form of nostalgic preference to whatever someone is used to playing.

I grew up with SNES games on a CRT and would absolute choose sharp pixels over a CRT filter. Blur hurts my eyes just thinking about it.

I grew up on Atari and Coleco. Still prefer the chunky, clearer integer scaling available now.

I grew up with the Atari 5200 and would absolutely have chosen crisp pixels back then if it were possible.
