Macbook Air M2 native resolution issue

I see that macbook air m2 has a native resolution of 2560x1664. But I do not see that in my resolution list in settings. Using any other resolution makes the display look blurred. Am I missing something?

MacBook Air 15″, macOS 14.2

Are you sure you want to set the resolution to 2560 x 1664? If you were able to, the text would be so tiny as to be nearly unreadable.

I've always felt it best to run at the Default resolution on my MacBooks. My 15" M2 MacBook Air, for example, has a default resolution of 1710 x 1107, and that's what I use 100% of the time. (Your default resolution is probably different if you have the 13" MacBook Air.)
