    You absolutely can be tracked by screen resolution, especially when using a monitor with unusual resolution (few years ago I was still using 1440x900 so I understand this well). I just don’t understand how this specific change would help prevent that.

      At one point, years ago, they were talking about removing the screen resolution entirely, and just make it a copy of the window size values instead.

      Guessing it broke too much stuff, since it seemed like a nice idea but never eventuated.
