  I still don't understand how that's different from using +a0.0.
(What +a0.0 does in practice is exactly what you propose: It kind of renders
an image at higher resultion and "scales" it down to the desired resolution.
This happens because it sends the extra rays for *each* pixel regardless of
what there is in the image; that's exactly the same as rendering at higher
resolution. You can control the extra resolution with +r.)
