The text isn’t fuzzy? I have a work-provided 1080p display and it’s really noticeable switching between that and a Retina display unless I’m across the room, even without my glasses.

Nope, not at all.

Maybe it is one of those things where, once you switch to 4K, you can’t got back.

Quite possibly. I do this multiple times a week and it’s quite noticeable but that’s definitely after training my baseline expectations.

I have found it seems to be better for eye strain but that’s a single anecdote, not science.

I was on ~100dpi monitors for years. I just picked up a 26" 4k Dell for a steal - it's noticably more crisp than my 1440p screens. I'm not getting rid of my 1200p and 1440p screens on my workstation, but ... 4k is nice.
