It's better to not top post if possible.  :)

There is an xrandr scale command as well. If for example, your output is
eDP1 then
xrandr --output eDP1 --scale .8x.8

The smaller the scaling, the larger the size, so I think that .5x.5 wou
be what the tweak tool is offering.

Thanks for the help.

I've got it working now.  What I ended up doing was adding video=1600x900 to my boot / kernel command line to test and then appended it in my grub menu.

I screwed around with font scaling with Gnome Tweak and also in about:config of Firefox and Thunderbird but there was always something that looked funny and some webpages didn't come out right.

setting my resolution to 1600x900 is a cheesy, yet effective, way to do get what I need.

...Now if I can just get my touchpad to FRICK'N disable while typing.

Sean,
