Well, it's actually fairly easy. The more pixels you add (to the same space) the higher is the magnification of optical defects. If you increase the pixel density you should increase QC and quality of your lenses. This will not happen on the QC side due to the associated costs - that's for sure.

Isn't this a variation of the myth of the megapixel myth? Sure higher density sensors will magnify at pixel level any weakness, but the "big picture" flaw will be the same. A bad lens is still bad, but a great lens can get better if it would otherwise be held back by the sensor.
