I agree with you, but a few real estate agents I spoke to, don't. For some
of them, that window is just too small. Bad eyes or who knows what. They
don't mind bigger pixels, they say a bigger window gives you the feeling
you're there, and that's what this real estate stuff is all about.

I had that too. What's your default? When mine was "medium (faster)", most
visitors kept it like that. When I changed it to "better (slower)", again
most kept it like that. Most people are in a hurry and don't want to read
much and change much.

I used to have that, but they like more what I have now: you don't select
anything anywhere, but if you maximize your browser window, you get a larger
viewing window too.

The size of the viewing window doesn't influence the fov.
