Why doesn't the background resolution change as you change resolutions?

[WHS]

How about each person look at the screenshots I posted. one is the 4k and the other is the 2k and you can clearly see the same fov for both. Monitor aspect ratio was 16:9 but according to asus that should not matter. I should see more fov on the sides and I clearly do not. I do however see a clearly larger area when looking at my desktop of the same resolution. Just not the game. Assumption about consoles was fair. I play on ps3 ps4 and pc for the whole time this version off FFXIV has been out and I can see the holdings back now. I used to argue and defend consoles but I am not going to keep doing what I know is not right. I do in fact now believe the consoles are holding this game back if nothing more than the argument I am making right now about higher resolutions. They are not able to do it and letting pc see more field area would in fact be an unfair advantage to a console player. If any dev or mod would come right out and say right now that the game will get a greater fov on pc than on console because it can then that would be fair and in that case console would not be the hold back. I so far have not seen anyone actually say that is going to happen.
