This would give you more pixels per inch and consequently more information per inch.
Wouldn't this begin to give a different, computer created, look? It seems to me that anytime information gets moved, crowded, separated, that that begins to take the image away from it's origin.

What of this example: I have a large file, too large to post on the forum. I need to reduce the file size so I reduce the pixels from 2000 x 3008 to 400 x 600. In doing so I have created a less sharp image. Could this effectively be done by reducing the resolution. Wouldn't this reduce the file size as well? I don't understand the difference between reducing resolution and reducing pixel size. Why would I ever reduce resolution if I can just reduce the pixels?
