Trying to push ISO 400 to ISO 1200 in low light. Did I waste this roll?

I shot a roll of Fuji Neopan 1600 (unlabeled as ISO 400 in the box) in a dim bar using zone focusing and underexposed it by two stops Develop it at D76 1:1 with a 20% push. The negatives look muddy as hell but the prints are sharp with strange shadow separation. Someone explain why this works or confirm I’m just hallucinating from expired chemicals. I’m not here for hand-holding, I want to know if pushing in the darkroom negates lens limitations or if I’m just being a cheap bastard.

overrated film stocks

ngl dont get why ppl rave about portra 400 so much. shot a few rolls and its just ok imo. cant see the diff between it and superia

stop glorifying push processing

i've had enough of the push‑film hype everyone acts like cranking the ISO is some artistic breakthrough. it just flattens highlights, adds grain that
