Your thinking is still screwed up.
Dot Pitch is a specification of CRT monitors, about the spacing of the
phosphor dots. This dot pitch spacing is unlikely to match the screen
signal size in pixels. There is no possible alignment between phosphor
dots and signal pixels on a CRT monitor, and this causes fuzziness. Each
signal pixel necessarily straddles a couple of phosphor dots.
LCD monitors are digital. If the display size is 1280x1024 pixels,
then that spacing also is the dot pitch, by definition. There is no
other way to look at it. If the screen size signal matches this diplay
size (if both are 1280x1024 pixels), then it absolutely must be an 100%
perfect alignment match. Then there is no other choice possible except
perfect alignment.
This is why the LCD display shows tiny text with so much greater clarity
than is possible for CRT monitors. However the LCD color accuracy is
likely not as good as a CRT (but they are getting better).
