I have noticed that the Wii U does a poor job of upscaling on a 1080p monitor. Often the result is a smeared blurry image. Would it make sense to get a dedicated hdmi upscaler to cleanly scale to the monitors native resolution?
You might wanna try a dedicated 720p lcd as they're dirt cheap and can be often found for free. If you've got the room you could get a hd crt as the wii u can output 720p and 1080i over standard wii component cables.
Have you tried setting the Wii U resolution to that of the game you’re playing (most Wii U games render at 720p; vWii at 480p) and getting your monitor to do the upscaling?
If you’re considering an upscaler, you could try out a relatively cheap one first to see whether you like the effect (e.g. Seiki u-Vision cable) before investing in something better but pricier (e.g. Marseille mClassic/mCable).
Just turn up the sharpness by one. I have the U-Vision, a mCable Gaming (planning to sell) and recently returned the mClassic.
All them mess up the original image (for worst or better depends on you), after a while I just returned to regular HDMI cable and let my consoles (Switch and Wii U) do the upscaling (I also play on a monitor).

If that sounds like your thing, try 2xSal in any SNES emulator and you'll get the idea before making an expensive purchase that you may regret.

Ive always kept my WiiU on 1080i it just always looked better to me on my TV and my HD Projector .. makes the vWii games look crisper
Put it into 480p for a far better picture:

(which may of course depend on your TV as that will do the upscaling instead)

It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem. -

the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze -

but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in

There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.

But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".

Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.

Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need -
