But that doesn't make sense mathematically. If 2.5GSa/s is the maximum rate, 400ps is the smallest sample period. That would be 2.5 samples per div @ 1ns. 5 samples per div would require a 5GSa/s rate (200ps sample).

Math is math; there is no getting around it. Drawing dots on a display is something else.
Either one of the following HAS to be true:
1) Your DSO samples at a maximum of 2.5G and it gets a sample every 400ps - and then, for whatever reason, it's doubling the number of actual sample points it draws on the screen.
2) Your DSO, for whatever reason, has the 5GSa/s rate of the TDS3052, and it gets a sample every 200ps. Then the number of points on the screen equals the actual real sampling rate.

Maybe it's magic...
No seriously, as Marmad says: "Math is math".

EDIT: BTW, does not happen when saving via RUU.

I agree is true, it is not relevant.
RUU -> Superb work. :-+

OK, I have deleted my posts.

Separate Digitizers. Ensure accurate timing measurements with
separate digitizers for each channel. Each digitizer can sample at up
to the maximum sample rate (2.5GSa/s); acquisition on all channels is always
concurrent to provide full single-shot bandwidth on each channel.
So IMO, Tek is combining samples from 2 channels,
if so Let's deleted all this dicussion, Please
