I thought we were talking about "resizeable desktop applications in the 90s"? The reason I bring up that monitor is that I had the misfortune of using dozens of desktop applications written in the 90s to control lab equipment and spent copious amounts of time manually tiling them in all kinds of positions and sizes on a high resolution monitor. Scaling was definitely not the issue thanks to great eyesight. I was lucky if they supported a non 4:3 aspect ratio. Anything that wasn't a graphical or CAD or other app that did its own rendering or was developed by a large dev team was a crapshoot. Lots of absolutely positioned buttons clipped by a resize, toolbars that didn't hide their buttons behind a menu when the window was too small, uncollapsible panels with minimum widths that exceeded the main content, and so on. Most of them were about as resizable as a water balloon when you smash it on the ground.
