Double HIgh Resolution Question



    I have noticed that a pair of two colors each column from 0 through 560.

For example:

01/2000: 08 for odd
00/2000: 11 for even

    It would produce two red plots on both Bank 0 and Bank 1.

If it changes the values below, it will show four different color plots.

01/2000: 47 for odd
00/2000: 47 for even

    First plot shows light green, second plot shows red, third plot shows
dark blue, and fourth plot shows dark gary.  Light green and red are
together on one plot in Bank 1 and dark blue and dark gray are together on
one plot in Bank 0.
    It makes sense that each plot does have two dots.  Why do Apple II
recommends us to use only one color on both dots for each plot?
    If it is the case, why Apple II produce 560x192 instead of 280x192?  I
should be able to convert from 560x192 to 280x192 by removing a pair of dots
each plot.  Each plot will only have one dot that will show 16 colors on
280x192 instead of 560x192.  It will look much neater than 560x192 on
emulator project.
    What do you think?

    I do understand why 560x192 is designed because 80 column characters
requires 14x16 (w X l).
