That’s because the graphics were tailored to CRT resolution - which is to say, low/outright bad resolution.

No, it's because the graphics were tailored to the analog characteristics of CRTs: things like having scanlines instead of pixels and bleed between phosphors. If they were only tailored to low resolution they'd look good on a low resolution LCD, but they don't.

I admit I'm quibbling, but the whole thread is that, so...
