for me in software engineering, it really does make a difference to have that extra space when having two things open side by side. Also I DJ for fun sometimes, and having the extra real state helps a LOT.

I don't think OP is saying screen size isn't important. It is (as I type this from the rightmost of 3 24" 4K monitors...).

They're saying that what they can't do on a 14" they also can't do on a 16". Those two inches don't help.

Thanks that is exactly my point, because I'm not losing any functionality with a slightly smaller phone, but I am gaining something that is more mobile, fits into pockets and usable with one hand.

I understand the large screen appeal, there's a lot of folks out there now where they use their phone to watch shows and in some cases is their only computing device.
