It's probably okay to still say that scaling is enabled "in general" but for scaling <2, and why not, maybe even greater, hinting should not be inhibited. The screen is still made of pixels. Qt is not going to be able to throw out all the hinting and subpixel code like Apple did, because it still needs to be supported for non-Retina screens anyway, for a long time. I'll open a Qt bug and see how it goes.
