I have to assume people are talking about contrast when they use terms like sharpness and crispness even though they are unrelated concepts.
I'm open to the possibility there are legitimate differences between screens that hypothetically should be nearly identical, but the explanations given for the differences are never logically coherent. At least the Voyage people have the micro-etched glass thing.

That's because we often don't know the reason for the difference, as we're not the ones making the devices. The Oasis 3 and the Libra 1st gen (H2O) should have identical screens, but actually the Oasis has better contrast. Why? Your guess is as good as mine. Glass vs plastic?
And to make waters even muddier, the Oasis 3 had better contrast than the Oasis 2. The screens were supposed to be identical, but were not in real life. The reason? No idea.
