The "you" would be whoever participated in the decision to drop RHEL 6.
That should be painfully obvious.

It is not. The 4K monitor worked on the unchanged system __before__ the
Qt based software was installed. We know this because nothing was
changed on the monitor still worked.
The Qt support for 4K was not good.
Still wondering why the moderators are sleeping,
**So am I. **
You hurl personal insults at me and try to call them sarcasm. I pointed
out the difference between your response and Software Engineering and
that someone knowing the difference wouldn't have made such a statement.
Every time someone points out what you say is not correct you call it a
personal insult. It's time for the moderators to do something about you.
It's not just me you lash out at. ***You've been unchecked for far too
long.***

No, it's not. It is no different than than changing out a keyboard that
already has a driver on the platform.
In order to meet the definition of "changing the environment" you have
to change the kernel, CPU, or the drivers. Had they changed out the
video card, thus introducing shiny new drivers, __that__ would have been
changing the environment.
Hooking up a 500-key keyboard that requires a new driver, __that__ would
be changing the environment.
The 4K capability fully existed in the environment. It was not
previously exercised. When it finally was exercised (in production no
less) it pointed out HiDPI support in that version of Qt was no good.
Bundled in with the fixing of HiDPI, for whatever reason, was the
dropping of RHEL 6. That sabotaged support for Scott.
At the time of release 4K monitors were far too expensive to be "a
corporate standard." Now that they are $300 and falling, they will be
the new corporate standard. 27 inch monitors were really expensive when
they first came out. Now, if you shop around you can find off-lease 27
inch 1920xwhatever resolution monitors for around $80. As the price on
them dropped they became corporate standards.
