Yes, it's due to the pentile subpixel layout. It has twice as many green subpixels as red and blue.

It's more related to the chromatic aberration, where the correction is not perfect (esp when not correctly configured) and using only one color avoid the issue. Of course the best choice is green, in resolution and brightness.
