It's also a matter of the fonts being used. Some fonts become unreadable by
antialiasing. Others are unreadable before.
I for one thing prefer antialiasing for very small fonts (<8px) and for big
sizes (>16pt). I don't care about the sizes in between. But something like
X\ X
X \X
X X
is much more readable than e.g.
XX X
X XX
X X
