Is there a video which compares 1080 and 4k and another one comparing HDR vs SDR?

When I watch 4k content I think, wow, this is great detail. But when I watch 1080 this is very good, but the tiny people in the background wouldn't be blurred in 4k.

And when I watch a dark SDR video I hate that the movie companies didn't release HDR quality although it's a recent movie/ series. But how would I know if it would be better?

I always think that the grass is greener on the other side, but how would I know?

Would it be hard to create such a video file? I guess with ffmpeg. But all else would need to be kept constant which is the difficult part

On second thought, If you use the same source 1080p video and lock one in at 1920 x 1080 window and expand the other one to as full screen as possible. The full screen video will be up-scaled so you should be able to compare directly on one set.
