You are getting more screen, not less. Nothing dumb about that.

I can see someone having an aesthetic issue with it, as a distraction perhaps.

But having a fat bezel at the top, as all other bezels shrink toward zero, is also aesthetically non-optimal.

The person that can’t get any work done because of the notch staring back at them has probably other bigger issues on the go.

It's just an addition, it doesn't remove any real estate from existing screen. Have a dark/black background/strip around on top and it should solve the issue. Sure not ideal, but solvable.
