The fact is that originally B&W TV had much better picture than color TV. When they added the color subcarrier, the horisontal resolution was halved (from 600 to 300). I remember some memorable ski-jumping moments in 1960's which I tuned to perfect focus, as the scenery was black and white to begin with. Then they added color subcarrier and these programs become fuzzy and unwatchable also on BW receivers.
