Is it time for subpixel antialiasing (aka "cleartype") to die?

RGB pixel subhinting is a hack that was invented for 72dpi LCD displays. But we are increasingly seeing high-DPI displays in use, where simple antialiasing is superior. In fact, modern phones rarely use this technology any more.

Some also argue that text with greyscale antialiasing is more readable on modern displays than text with subpixel rendering.

What do you think?
