> With the given resolution it is impossible to read the text and recognize the icons at the given distance.

The problem is that font sizes (and icon sizes, using the "right" style, such
as Skulpture) are DPI sensitive. If you are using a HDTV or projected screen,
setting the DPI values to actual/real values does not make sense, as the text
would appear as small as with a normal display (in terms of millimeters/inches,
not in term of pixels).

It is suggested to set your DPI values in a way that "usual" font sizes (such
as 10pt) map to an actual pixel size comfortable to reading. Depending on what
the video driver or X server reports for the screen dimension, it could be
actual values, or "virtual" values.
