I think it's possible that higher pixel density would lead to worse contrast, given E-Ink technology. The ink particles are contained within some kind of transparent globes. The pixel density partly depends on how small you can make the globes. If you can't reduce the thickness of the globe material when shrinking the size, then more space gets taken up by that, relatively speaking. Smaller globes also mean a thinner layer of ink particles, which might affect the contrast. This is all guesswork on my part, but it makes sense to me.
