Let me rephrase - you can't guarantee pixel perfection in the final designed
product, so why are you trying to achieve it in the prototype?

An analogy: the weather can't be precisely predicted to the degree, so when
you plan out your outdoor wedding rehearsal do you rig up special shade
cloths or heat focusing mirrors and tweak all the settings such that the
temperature at the altar is exactly 24 degrees C and not 25 degrees C? The
temp on the day is going to vary by 5 degrees in either direction,
attempting that level of fidelity in your rehearsal is a waste of time.
