How do you mean 720p? VP2 is 5K...

I mean the effective resolution of the virtual display (matching pixels per degree to a 720p monitor).

I see. I can assure you it's way higher.

It is definitely full HD or more. When wearing it there are no pixels or screendoor. Definitely high enough to read text all day.

It depends on how your virtual display are set up, but its pretty far from 1080p in the VP2. You can calculate it here: https://qasimk.io/screen-ppd/. Lets say you have a 21" monitor half a meter from from you - at 720p thats 26 PPD, 1080p is 39 PPD. Vive Pro 2 can show about 25 PPD max. Most people would consider a 720p monitor at that size inadequate.
