It's not just when you blow it up - I found the bitmapped font considerably more legible at 1:1 size. Hinting definitely makes sense at larger sizes, but when it's that small it tends to look a bit muddy to me.

In that case I'd say that the colour fringing suffered a little from having a hint of font almost visible beneath it, whereas the bitmapped font was actually pretty decent.
