Either your eyes are bad or the files you’ve watched. There’s an absolutely enormous difference between 720p and proper 4k with a decent bitrate. Also a decent display with good HDR can add a lot as well.

With respect, if you cannot notice a difference between 720p and 4k on a 4k compatible screen, then you do indeed have something wrong with your eyes.

It’s not just resolution and colorspace. The providers also drop the ~~nitrate~~ \*bitrate *significantly*. Which, in my opinion, is way more noticeable and jarring.

Resolution isn't actually important. Dots per inch is, but also it needs to be scaled by distance. Low DPI isn't noticeable if you're far away, but even high DPI is when you're close to it. It might be less that your eyes are going bad and more that you're sitting further away from your screen or your screen is really small.
