You're right. I just looked it up, it seems I misremembered the CGA/EGA palette specs.
I'm pretty sure this is based on the standard EGA/VGA font, which is 8x14 pixels, whereas CGA only supported 8x8. Characters like A, N and M look noticeably more pixellated around the diagonals in CGA mode.
This is very much the one everyone would recognise from the VGA era, although it's actually an EGA mode.
