I bought a 2000 Camry to drive instead of a high end GPU, so yeah I need upscaling. It'll still be useful in 10 years too.

Fuck Nvidia. Buy AMD and be a patient gamer. You'll never need DLSS or anything like it if you sit a couple years behind the leading edge. You'll get cheaper cards, cheaper games, and flawless performance on ultra settings.
I've operated this way since 2015 and have no plan to stop.
You are attemptijg to justify the features that you don't have so that you don't look as bad and trying to make others lower their way of thinking to try to make them give up features that you believe nobody on the planet can use since you don't use it. You're making a self serving argument trying to take away people's right to choose what they want to buy and not making an objective analysis.
For example, I use NVENC encoding for recording 4 times a week. The 50-series has a new NVENC hardware encoder and decoder. How is AMD's encoder for recording in comparison to nVidia?
Translation: We were successful into bribing our way into the development scene to have games be unoptimised, driving sales and margins up, thus pleasing shareholders. We're still shit at making server blades and connectors though, as seen by the thousands of cancelled blackwell server orders in favour of the older Hopper, given blackwell is a fire hazard. Thank you regarded gamers for buying our low VRAM trash so we will never be made to pay for our fuck ups.
Edit: added sauces
You don't say. Kinda hard to avoid if it's now a requirement to run anything.
Yeah, no shit.
You present two choices: 65fps with DLSS, or 28 FPS without it, then yes, 80% of people will no-shit-sherlock pick the higher number.
