Infintesimly ? small dots have an infinite total length of circumference that will give uncontrollable bleeding in the infinitesimly small distances when one of the printing conditions isn't consistent :-)   That could be inconsistent humidity, paper, inkflow. There are advantages in using bigger dots with lighter inks. A week ago I did read something on the web about printing with CcMmYK inks in silkscreen, they learned something from inkjet printing.
