> I don't use the top and far left parts much to avoid having to turn my head all the time.

I find this to be a big issue even on smaller screens. 16x9 is great if your using your computer consumption but I find it non-desirable for production. I think I would prefer to go back to a 4x3 screen for production because I generally like my apps to fill the whole screen and I do a lot of my work in the terminal.



What people who use less than 1% of production want tends to have little effect, except when they are willing to pay the difference in cost for volume and niche production runs.

I.e., affordable equipment with 16:9 displays rides free on the entertainment train. If enough people were willing to pay a few $hundred more to get 4:3, somebody would make it.
