Maybe the terms "Interlaced" and "Progressive" are more appropriate that
don't reference the actual resolution but the way the scanlines are layed
out to fill the vertical resolution of the display?

The CoCo can't do progressive.

I assume you're just talking about displaying more scanlines (filling in the
blank between scanlines)?
