Superresolution in consumer cameras is definitely adding detail to the image using prior information about the universe (hair has a pattern, what looks like an edge has to be sharper than what the image says, etc). This is definitely the questionable artsy aspect of this superres boom. But the question I answered was more specific which supposed how you can make up info which doesn’t exist, but that’s definitely not true either. Modern superres tech (especially the non-deep learning kind) can extract more info from the image if you systematically account for the psf of the camera, distortions etc.
