Yes.absolutely correct. I'm monitoring all this on a 7-inch tablet. Sitting 12 inches away from it.

When I restored my 7 inch National television, I said pretty close to it too on the kitchen table.

It does get tiresome, though. I can see how RCA Victor went immediately to a 10 inch minimum CRT size after the 621TS. Best way to combat the cheapies. Of course, they were in a position to do so.
