It doesn't. 1280x720 and 720x480 are explicitly listed as a valid resolutions in the BD spec. Everything is upscaled to 1080p for marketing reasons, not technical.

That's HD 720p and "Enchanced Definition", which would still be de-interlaced, upscaled and/or pillarboxed/stretched to 16:9 from SD source material.

It's also terrible for video games as the TV then spends extra time processing every frame, further increasing input lag.
