If you're using it for coding, 4k can be wonderful, but requires desktop scaling.
If you aren't able to configure it, you get just get microscopic text (unless you're using something like a 55" tv as your monitor)

The only mess is if you have mixed displays - and even that is mostly still problem only on Linux.
I could set the resoluion to something lower like 1080p, but what I wanted a high native resolution and then scaling of the icons and fonts.
If you option-click on the resolution options you may be able to manually override it.
The only problem with this approach is the mouse cursor stays tiny, and it doesn't have the OSX shake option to find it, though I rarely lose it so it isn't much of a problem.
