You can see those things with just server logs.
No, you can't. There's no way to get viewport from server logs, and presenting them a form digestible by marketing people isn't easy.

And for all of that, you need GA because...?
Because it's easy and marketing people can work with it. Access logs don't have all the information ( e.g. viewport) and are cumbersome to parse.
I get the gist, you believe you’re so bad at running a shop and/or writing you can’t survive without creeping on people.
Also, look at both of your examples. They’re bad. They’re both best replied to with that diagram of holes on a WW2 airplane.
If i run an e-commerce site, and see the vast majority of my users, but the minority of those that buy stuff, are on mobile and from India, maybe i need to optimise my site for mobile and lower-speed connections? Maybe something is wrong with my payment for specific currencies?
If i run a blog, ans the majority of my viewers come from France, maybe it's time i start writing localised content in French?
You get the gist.
