It's physics.

Kaleido 3 means 300 ppi in black and 4095 colors (incl. grayscale and white) in 150 ppi; this provides much more information than 16 grayscale levels in 300 ppi, especially since a lot of ebooks do not only contain black and white but color.
The light lost through the CFA can easily be compensated for by the built-in lighting.
The optimum resolution of the human eye is one arc minute; this in turn means that at a viewing distance of 50 cm you can no longer see any difference and at 25 cm you can only guess it.
And since a viewing distance of less than 25 cm is eye straining for a person with normal vision, it hardly matters.
The only problem with Kaleido 3 may be insufficient (strength, uniformity) lighting.
It's applied physics for humans.
