It's not just the resolution but also the CRT tech. It smooths out the image because the pixels themselves are different.

Yeah. A CRT at 1280x1024 looks just as good as my 4K TV in terms of clarity in TV/movies/video games. Really, text is the only thing that's worse. Hell, even 720p looks amazing in a side by side comparison with native 4K content on my relatively high end 4K TV (Hisense U8 series).
