Hate to say it, but most likely the reason is "just because". I'm guessing they assume people will use 4k now and 8k a little later. Anyone not on those is using HD at the amazing 1920x1080. Phew! They sell TVs. Do their TVs commonly support those 1440 resolutions?

Related gripe about Sony: they lost my business when they scrubbed the dev kit for the ps vita. I wanted my own games on there. Even preordered a book. Then when I finally had time and some tutorials and discovered I needed a key but the key server had been taken offline. So Xbox it is and not so much Sony. I don't buy anything Sony now. Its been so long but I'm still salty about it.
