Terrain : MountainScopeTM vs. Flight Cheetah

The Flight Cheetah 190 image came from their documentation. The two images do not show exactly the same location, but the point here is the difference in rendering quality. Is the Cheetah's terrain quality really 9 times better, as it should be if they're using 30m terrain data instead of the 90m terrain data used in MountainScope? Take notice how the Cheetah's terrain, even at a scale of 75 miles, looks a bit blurry when compared to the sharp terrain detail of MountainScope even at 10 miles scale.
