If there is a 1 to 1 mapping of detected location to actual location, software can "fix" the problem. That is a big if, but it might be true.
by my understanding a blind spot means that the screen does not detect the pen in that area when the pen goes over it. I don't see how by using the one to one mapping you can compensate that. You might try to eventually anticipate and interpolate the trajectory of the pen tip and try to light up the pixels when the pen traverses the area but...it is not that easy...
The software will know the point where the trajectory/pen track enters the area and the exit point from that area (blind spot). What the writer wanted to do in that area, especially if the area is big, it is difficult to guess and for that reason impossible to simulate.. my 2c
