To clarify: I mean I have no idea why Mac OS doesn't let ME select that resolution while SwitchResX does.

Go to the Displays panel, switch to the "default for display" option, then switch back to "scaled" while holding down the option key. Do you see that resolution in the list of options?

I’m not sure what SwitchResX actually does. None of the accounts I have seen online are thorough enough to draw any conclusion.

As far as I can tell it is the same as Option-clicking on scaled in the display preferences.
