There are 10' experiences for Linux (Kodi, Plex, and Steam Big Picture are what I know of), but these aren't integrated into the desktop, they are focused on TV/movies and gaming respectively, so KDE focusing on this problem is something new.

I've never heard this term. Thanks for the great explanation.

It’s the common term for a user interface that’s large and legible to users sitting across a room from the display: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/10-foot_user_interface

Sitting three metres from the screen I presume.

No way. that would be a 9'9" experience, I believe..

Although I think your point is correct.

I'd say 10' is within the margin of error considering how many significant figures they gave in their estimate.
