I love my Lenovo X1 Carbon with a 14" QHD display.

QHD is not a popular resolution but it's absolutely perfect for this size, like you mention. It's better for battery life than 4k and it's much crisper than 1080p.

With a 13"-14" screen, you would have to scale a 4k display which is a complete waste in my mind. You either lose out on sharpness by getting fuzzy fractional scaling, or you go full 2x scaling and you lose all the screen real estate of a high pixel density display. 1440p is beautifully sharp without requiring scaling on a 14" panel.

I use a 13" 4k at native scale. I've heard this statement so often and it's always told as a fact when clearly it isn't so for everyone.

I'm pretty confident you're in the minority as reading text on that thing will be very straining on your eyes in almost no time. I have a 20/20 vision and sure I could use a 4k on the same size for a few hours but it wouldn't be comfortable.
