Quick question: Can't we just set the font size to very small and turn block character into pixels?

Yep so the terminal size directly influences the amount of bandwidth consumed by this, so if you want higher resolution at the expensive of higher bandwidth you can just reduce your font size.

For gnome-terminal just hit Ctrl+[minus].

I wouldn't recommend going all the way down to 1 pixel though.
