Instead of writing (in the 'concerns' section) "not 600x1000px," should there be all the correct formats mentioned above? It's going to make the template considerably larger. Or should there be something like: "not 3:5 ratio and no smaller than 432x720"? That's a good point. Your example could work, perhaps more like "Should be at a 3:5 ratio and no smaller than 432x720," to avoid any possible confusion.

I don't know what my PC resolution is, and neither would the average layman. That's a possibility, although most enthusiasts (the ones most likely to upload) tend to know their system specs fairly well, and it isn't that difficult to find your resolution. But it would still be a good idea to account for this in policy. Maybe emphasize the 3:5 pixel ratio over a specific size, but also include a suggestion like 648x1080 for the time being.
