Sims 1 Legacy - Bad UI scaling on 4K/high DPI screen

I have a 3840x2160 (4K) screen. When I launch Sims 1 Legacy Collection (Windows 11, Steam) the UI is oversized and pixelated, as if it were set to 800x600. Only when I manually set Windows to 1920x1...

Users with a 1080p native display resolution (like me) aren't able to change the scaling of the UI (which by default is way too small @ 1080p). It's a bug, as users with higher native desktop resolutions are able to set -r launch parameters to scale to any res they wish. Doing this in 1080p does nothing. Please fix EA.

I've tried setting -r launch parameters (specifically -r800x600) and it did nothing. My native res is 1440p.
