Why is it so difficult to achieve 4k resolution at stable or locked 60fps in gaming?

It’s not, but I assume your talking about the new consoles which are limited by hardware cost and heat output.

Person is drawing pictures.
They start drawing pictures using lots of dots, let’s say in a grid of 3840×2160.
When there isn’t much on the picture they can do this, let’s say 75 times every second.
But then more details are added to the picture and they have to think more about the shadows that are created by objects and so on.
The person now has to think more so can only draw the picture 45 times a second.
We could hire another person to help, but that would cost more. We could make them try a bit harder but then they might get overworked and too hot.
