I know, I'm just pointing out that its pretty amazing that we have as few dead pixels as we do.

Imagine if you had to make 3.5 million anythings and all of them had to be perfect. D:

Well, you actually do that every day of your life. To use a biology example, your cells copy long, wobbly strands of DNA totaling about 3 billion bases with at most a dozen errors every second of your life - at blazing fast speeds no less - imagine painting road stripes in 4 different colors, in the same exact location every time, on a truck going at 600 mph, making at most one in a hundred million mistakes. But yes, that's besides the point.
