> it’s mostly assumed that you’re talking about static vector graphics images

SVG stands for "scalable vector graphics" not for "static vector graphics". Scalable files, but not static or pixel oriented files can be scaled to a higher resolution without losing fidelity. You lose fidelity, when increasing the display size of a bitmap. Think of how your company logo appears, when zooming-in on a 16x16 icon version.
