Why does every UFO video get zoomed in to 800% and called fake?

I saw a clip from a guy in Bakersfield last month, a light doing slow circles over his street, and it looked pretty clear at normal zoom. Then someone in the replies blew it up to 800% and said the pixels prove it's CGI, and everyone just agreed. Here's the thing, if you zoom any phone video that far you get mush, that's just how tiny sensors work, it says nothing about what the light was. It bugs me because real analysis dies in those threads and nobody talks about the actual footage anymore. Has anyone seen a zoomed clip get debunked where the debunk itself was wrong?

Man, ask for the original file and run it through a frame stacker before trusting any zoomed screenshot.
