That test was passed along to me back when I was SURE I had a received a faulty red dot. Turns out that even a very slight astigmatism will cause the dot to appear misshapen. I do turn the intensity way down to "just visible" when I'm trying to do precision work, or sighting one in... seems to help keep the dot from "flaring"
