Hi, I connected a M4 MacBook Air 13" to a 4K monitor and noticed some resolutions are missing. For example, none listed has (HiDPI) listed at the end. The resolutions 3360x1890 and 3200x1800 are also missing. How come? From a YouTube video, even a M1 Pro can provide those resolutions.

The base M chips have always had a reduced number of resolutions (especially HiDPI resolutions) compared to the Pro chips. Looks like a classic case of Apple hobbling the based chip.
