Ghosting much worse on Oasis 3 compared to Paperwhite

Hi all,
I purchased the new Kindle Oasis 2019 and was disappointed to find that it had by far the worst ghosting I'd seen on any of my ereaders (I have owned 6).

I took it back to the store and a salesperson after a cursory glance said "Yeah, that's not normal." and processed an exchange. I tried out the brand new replacement Oasis 3 and, to my disappointment, found it was exactly the same.

Sure, ghosting is a very common complaint plaguing all ereaders including Paperwhites due to the very nature of eink technology, but why is the ghosting on my Paperwhite 3 (and all my other devices for that matter) almost invisible in comparison?

Has anyone had a similar experience with their Oasis 3? (I can't find any reviews complaining about it)
Does it get better with a bit of use?
Do Oasis devices use a different eink screen to Paperwhites?
