It's amusing looking at the different layouts because it is somewhat reminiscent of image sensor layouts which have their own tradeoffs in terms of resolution and handling of detail (and noise, which is not as much an issue here). Perhaps some of the same arguments apply: it would depend on what kinds of data the screen was originally intended to show.
