I have still problems to understand it.

Yes, but this same amount of (captured) data is either displayed in a very
small or a very large X screen. How can the quality be the same?
I was expecting bad quality like when zooming into a jpeg picture. If
unscaled: the larger the screen, the smaller the picture - or if scaled (to
make the picture alway fit the screen), the larger the screen, the worse the
picture, because you start seeing pixels.
