For me the sub-pixel hinting is superior to just the grey-scale one
(98dpi). For one the fonts look much more crisp (grey-scale hinting
leaves them blurry), in bigger sizes there is an unwanted colour "halo"
around the letters though. But in order to look nice it requires to have
correct subixel order set. If you set it wrong, it looks awful. I don't
know if we can guess the right order for LCDs...
