Smooth interpolation is possible only on modern displays.
Mine simply has 10 pixels wide character matrix in text modes
(instead of 9, like on normal VGAs; the 10th column is either
blank or a copy of 8th and 9th -- for semi-graphic characters).

In the 'stretched' mode some pixel lines are simply doubled.
Now you can imagine how ugly it is.
