How close are you to your monitor(s) at the exact moment you read this?

I'm not at 2 feet with a smaller dual display, and I'd imagine I'd sit further away with gigantic 30+ monitor(s). I know I do when I use a 27. Others at $work mostly sit at least as far away.

In this area of improved vision, what does it gain you? Did all the old hackers not amount to what they could have been because they perceived some less pixels than there could have been?

I don't think a serious argument can be made on this this front until standards reach at least 16k.
