Can a smart person explain to me why a downscaled 4k picture looks better on a 1920x1080 monitor than a native 1080p picture?

That shouldn't work...

Well.. there's more pixels in 4k.. so if you squish it into 1080p there should technically be more detail in that one pixel. Should be how it works anyway.

@GermanAf: When you stretch shit out, it looks pixelated. Yes? Same concept when you shrink. You add more detail into that one pixel.
