On large, low res device (electronic scoreboard, for example), I think I could tell the difference between 3 pixels and 4 pixels. For animations and transitions of different shadow blur widths, I'd want it to be as smooth as possible, adding or removing one pixel of blur at a time. And when 1px = 2x2 or more device pixels, I don't see any reason not to allow fractional CSS pixels, especially to make animations smoother. > and at larger shadow sizes the difference would certainly not be noticeable. Not as much, no. >
