The API doc you linked is misleading.

Yeah - if that's true then it's even worse because the output price says
But if all the "compute time" is spent on a 1K image and they're just passing it to a ESRGAN or other upscaling technique, then there’s literally zero reason to generate anything above 1K. Just save the money and upscale it yourself.
