This is exactly my experience (although I haven't had driver issues with multiple monitors for over 10 years). Went from a 1920x1200 24" widescreen and a 1600x1200 20" 4:3 to just a single 2560x1440 27" widescreen.

Next step will be to a 32"+ 4k monitor and I can't imagine needing much more than that for a long time.

When I was using 2-3 monitors, I had all kinds of trouble with them under linux. This was no doubt mostly due to them being different orientations, but there were no end of driver/window manager issues with various distros. Windows always worked flawlessly.
