That is not true

For example see

That example isn't doing any scaling.

You can try to guess the location of edges to enhance them after upscaling, but it's guessing, and when the source has the detail level of a 170x170 moon photo a big proportion of the guessing will inevitably be wrong.

And in this case it would take a pretty amazing unblur to even get to the point it can start looking for those edges.
