They could do both, but most enthusiasts at the time preferred 720p because it technically showed more pixels on the screen at any given moment in time, and didn't flicker the screen. Personally I used 1080i anyway cause it looked better to me at the time, even knowing its limitations. Either way I'm glad that we have zero compromise 4K now.

It would depend on the type of projector. The crt types do not have 'pixels', thus 1080i would be native while 720p would be interlaced and reduce quality.
