Some imprecise numbers that might help to get a feel for it:
48 tpi is about 2 tracks per mm, or 1/2 mm per track.
Each track is about 1/3 mm wide down the center of that 1/2mm space that
is allocated to it.
96tpi is about 4 tracks per mm, or 1/4 mm per track.
Each track is about 1/6 mm wide, down the center of that 1/4 mm space that
is allocated to it.
There is absolutely no chance for a successful read if the positioner is
more than 1/2 track off.
