I have my Xbox set to 1080p and 120hz but if I enable the allow 4K setting, will it go back...

So I have a 4K TV that is only capable of being 60hz on 4K and can go up to 120hz but only at 1080p. I have my settings set to 1080p resolution and 120hz refresh rate for games that support 120 FPS modes. If I go to TV settings there is a setting called “Allow 4K” which says “This setting allows native 4K content for 4K games and apps, even if your console is set to a lower resolution.”

What I’m wondering is, does it actually recognize when a game is native 4K or checkerboard 4K or any type of 4K for that matter and automatically switches my settings back to 4K and 60hz? Or does it just upscale to 4K from the 1080p setting I have it set to? On PS5 there’s an option to have an automatic 120hz mode enabled for games that support it. So I don’t have to switch back and forth between 60hz and 120hz. On Xbox that doesn’t seem to be the case unless “Allow 4K” is a way of doing that.
