What you are neglecting here is that, if diffraction is the cause of an 
image resolution of 5 MP (1/2 of 10 MP) using a 20 MP sensor will still 
only get you 5 MP.

But if you can't see it it doesn't make any difference... except that 
you might have better "per-pixel resolution" (whatever that is) with the 
larger pixels of a 10 MP sensor.
