Was this the people who rotated the sensor through 45 degrees, making a
"diagonal grid", then claimed that because the minimum _horizontal_
pixel spacing was reduced by root(2), they could double the pixel count?

Mr Smart rotates through a further 45 degrees to get a total x4 "improvement"
in philosophical pixels, without any engineering effort.
