Says who? And why?

Don't start again with that "scene author's decision" argument, because that
would be a circular one in this case.


Render options are *THE* thing to use to adapt the scene to certain image output
constraints. Like file formats. Or pixel aspect ratios. Or media aspect ratios,
for that matter.

You should NOT change the scene to fit it to some particular, media-dependent
output constraints.
