I think no, it was intended to give users control over what  kind of
filters they  want to apply.
Even with ffmpeg you still manually add scale filter ...

More interesting question if we should leave 1440x1080 BD render as is
or force it to be 16/9 in other words FullHD 1920x1080 visually ?

Some web posts indicated bluray is always 16:9 but libbluray sources
contradict that.
