I remember reading that Apple didn't want to use 400-line

Apple II users, higher resolutions being reserved for the Mac).
The explanation I recall from back then was that they would've had to switch
to interlaced video, and they didn't want to do that because it'd flicker
too much.
Supposedly you can enable 320x400 or 640x400 interlaced modes on a Video
Overlay Card, but I've never used one of those.
