The no gain part I’ll argue against. Having two browser windows open and getting to see both would be really nice a ton of times. Or one browser and a document/pdf whatever.
Like having a Netflix show running up top while doing work on the bottom half. Or writing a paper while having reference material open and visible. Or simply just reading an article without having to scroll as often.
Usage wise, a tall screen would have tons of usage. I just wouldn’t pay an extra $2,000+ for the privilage of it. I’d definitely pay like an extra 20% or so to have it, though.
I had thought when I posted that to put ‘no justifiable gain’ but did not for some reason, maybe it ruined the flow but with hindsight and as you and others have explained perhaps it should be there.
I do think it is a bit gimmicky and the problem it seeks to address could be more practically solved in other more conventional ways, but it is an attempt and a first iteration and has merit for that and who knows where it will end up, maybe all our screens will expand and contract like the windows within them one day.

Probably. As you originally wrote it, it just looks like you think the screen is pointless.
