Actually, its quite correct!

When I used a CRT projector I regularly used a 1080i image at 120in, and with that res you often get visible horozontal scanlines, not so with 720p. I've seen 1080p set up at 133", and it was perfect, no scanlines at all(soon I'll have it for my 147in screen).
You misread/misunderstood what you quoted... Read it again!

Again, 1080i/1080p signal transmission even at 5000" makes no difference if the 1080p set does proper inverse telecine deinterlacing. The 1080i signal when it arrives at the display gets converted to 1080p with zero signal loss, if done properly. Your example of a 1080i CRT projector having scanlines does not apply because now you are DISPLAYING 1080i, not simply transmitting 1080i and then deinterlacing to 1080p for display. Note that I mention this in the big image above as well. Once again, a 1080i signal contains all of the information of a 1080p signal, and therefore can be reconstructed to a 1080p signal - it is simply ordered differently.
