Same goes for calling it 4K or UHD, even when one is technically incorrect.

Why is it incorrect? 4k isn't a formal standard. It just means you have approximatly 4k horizontal pixels.

The logic of some people goes that anything under 4000 horizontal pixels is not "real" 4k. But as mentioned, I don't care and also call 3840x2160 "4k" simply because it's shorter than "2160p".
