What I understood is:
1-OP complained about the stretch distortion that results from using a 4:3
Xorg mode on a 16:9 display panel
2-OP thought a 1366 wide mode should be his solution.
As his xorg log listed no available 1366 mode, I ignored any mention of 1366
in my reply, focusing on a solution to his actual complaint.

Restoring the native aspect by using 1280x720 will_improve the image by
removing the stretch distortion, drawing a 16:9 mode on a 16:9 screen,
keeping circles circular and squares square, notwithstanding whatever effect
on perceptible detail might exist due to the coarse “native” resolution to
used resolution mismatch.
