Putting it mildly.  There are a lot of oddball resolutions out there.

The classic Mac models with a 9 inch screen have a resolution of
512x342.

Add 640x400 (early Powerbook models), 1152x768, 900x600 and 720x480
(Titanium Powerbook), 1152x864, 1280x960, 1280x1024, and many higher
resolutions.

What is the two-page display's resolution?  (I'd guess 1280x870 - twice
that of the portrait display.)
