I'd suggest that the assumptions are well out of date and should be
re-thought. They tend to make the display invisible because it's
out of the range of some modern monitors. Who uses 640 * 480
nowadays? Who uses CRT monitors nowadays? (The "safety" issue,
I believe, related to CRT monitors from about 30 years ago that
responded badly if driven slightly out of range.)
