There are no pixels in CRT. The guns go left to right, ¥r¥n, left to right, while True for line in range(line_number).

The RGB stripes or dots are just stripes or dots, they're not tied to pixels. There would be RGB guns that are physically offset to each others, coupled with a strategically designed mesh plates, in such ways that e- from each guns sort of moire into only hitting the right stripes or dots. Apparently fractions of inches of offsets were all it took.

The three guns, really more like fast acting lightbulbs, received brightness signals for each respective RGB channels. Incidentally that means they could go between brightness zero to max couple times over 60[Hz] * 640[px] * 480[px] or so.

Interlacing means the guns draw every other lines but not necessarily pixels, because CRTs has beam spot sizes at least.
