you come to the value 3. Since we are using
26.6 fractional numbers for vectors, there are
actually 64
possible fractional offsets.

Just the typical intended usage - LCD's with 3 elements. Just shifting
without horizontal hinting would cause a lot of colour fringes for every
vertical stem.
Horizontal hinting would also ikely reset and nullify the fractional advance...
definitely a lot to think about.
BTW, I rewrote and enhanced one the freetype-py sample to do also LCD_V in
cairo - here is the drawing:
