Upscaling isn't the same as getting proper HD.
Upscaling is electronic trickery to try and make an inferior image look better. The electronics tries to guess what should have been there if the image had been a higher content. But that is all it is, a guess.
True HD content, was recorded and transmitted at the high resolution. Thus nothing is degraded, there are no missing bits to fill in.
