Hey, I work a lot with collage style animation in after effects and tend to use a lot the feature "Detail-preserving upscale" and while its very useful its particulary complicated in the workflow to have it a separate effect, specially when working with null objects and expressions. I feel that this feature would be much usefull as a checkbox next to the default scale property. I mean, why would anyone prefer no to preserve detail while upscaling? but in the case you do want to loose detail for rendering time reasons, you can simply uncheck it and thats it. I dont know if my suggestion its the best way to improve the workflow of the tool and not sure if its an idea or a problem feedback but anyway I think that the feature as a separate effect is a problem with null objects. Thanks!
