I say the sky is blue. Everyone says the sky is blue. Bob calls it "skerruflecus". Everyone keeps telling him that it's crazy to call it that, but noooope, he's convinced. Is he allowed to call it that? Definitely. Every name is just some label someone made up. But when everyone agrees on the same label, it becomes more than just a label, it becomes an established name/term, of which people can easily point to and people instantly understand, and a point of reference to explain new things. "Oh look, those shoes are orange!" Everyone instantly knows what that means. That is how language works, someone makes up a term, uses that to describe another thing as reference, which is used again and again and again, until we have a series of established conventions we call "language". So when there is an established convention and you decide you call it something else, you are undermining the basics of how language works and are creating confusion. Upscaling, interpolation, "increasing resolution", these are all established terms with conventions associated with them, and tons and TONS of proof on those conventions have been posted in this thread. And since they are all technical terms, their labels are based on centuries of labels used to describe highly complex functions. You are fighting against the rules of language. If you want to, that's fine. Just don't be mad at us when we don't know what the hell you're talking about.
Also, I'd like to point out that you, as an admitted non-programmer, are telling an emulator programmer how to use emulator terminology. It's like if I decided to correct a Chinese person's Mandarin because I believe I can pronounce menu items at Chinese restaurants in America.
