MacBook Air M2 physical res is 2560x1664.
It reports this to apps as 1470x956 @ 2x HiDPI pixel ratio.
(The aspect ratio includes removing the menu bar/notch.)
I don't understand the reported width. 2560 / 2 = 1280, not 1470! That's 1.74x, not 2x. I expected 1280x720 @ 2x.
Help! What's happening?

They just neglect to tell you about the final step where they downscale 2940x1912 back to 2560x1664
