OK, I see your point. Upsampling does degrade the picture - but if you use the best possible algorithms, the effect is practically negligible. (Similarly, compressing BMP to JPG is lossy, but if you use the highest quality setting then the majority of people wouldn't notice the difference.)

And the 150% supersampling is implemented in the default settings:

ss_x = default( ss_x, 1.5 )
ss_y = default( ss_y, 1.5 )

I just left it unchanged.
