Yup, and that fair comparison shows two things:

1) There's plenty of room for editing

2) The UX at the top is about 25% taller because everything (fonts, icons) is scaled to be about 25% larger in each dimension for readability since people have bigger screens now.

And so actually, usable area has actually increased as a proportion of average consumer screen height.

The original Twitter post is just a silly unfair comparison.
