If I were just using text editors, I would do something similar. However, many people do other things with computers besides edit text.

I don't edit much text in the way people here would mostly imagine (like when your job predominantly is coding/terminal), I'm a GUI lover. What I hate the most, however, is switching windows (and turning head to look at another monitor feels just slightly better), also scrolling - I want everything I currently work with (+ a player window for a background vibe + two messengers) to be open side by side shown fully. Because as soon as I switch the context (like hiding a window to see another one full-screen) I often immediately forget what I was doing/thinking, like when you exit a room [1], this harms my productivity tremendously.
By the way, I once noticed that vertical stacking of 2 monitors feels much better for me that when I place them side by side horizontally. This is why a single big (big in both ways, also vertically) display works much better than fancy ultra-wide monitors for me.
What is DCC?
I don't even understand all this ppi hype, nor dual displays anymore. I always used dual-triple displays in the past but nowaways I just bought a single table-size (49-inch or something like that) 4k display and put it right in front of my desk just to use it in a plain old 100% mode (no "hi-dpi" scaling). This way it effectively replaces 4 displays with a single seamless space - no additional frames, no constraints, almost no head turning, beautiful tiling (when on Windows - PowerToys' FancyZones are great).
