>If you call averaging every pixel with its previous RGB value low-pass, then yes, it is low pass.
That's a low-pass, but it's not how the low pass is performed here. The chroma encoder filters out high frequencies before encoding. That's a necessary step for any composite signal.

Here, this is the RGB signal from the Genesis running through a professional encoder. Same exact blur, caused by the encoding process. No artifacts, though.

Again, where did you ever hear that the console averaged adjacent color values? That would give it an effective resolution somewhere around that of the Atari 2600.
