Would making things smaller or larger on screen via display settings improve or worsen battery life in any way?

It shouldn't but there have been certain reports of more active tiles on screen causing a slight performance degradation. In fact I remember reading a tweet from Gabe as a response to a certain Insider that reducing the number of pinned active tiles on the Start screen should increase performance. I am not sure if this applies to only low end devices.

Normally all my apps are pinned but most are static and off screen unless you scroll down. And thanks :) I'll switch to 175% zoom

Update: For whatever reason my battery seems to drain a lot faster when set to 175% zoom. Anybody have any ideas? x.x
