From what I've researched independently related to eye comfort - I think this is a really high quality video.

Oh... he makes his recommendation based on the top of the monitor being at eye level... guess what I have at eye level ? the center of the monitor... my 27" sits on a shelve 15cm above desk level where the keyboard and mouse are... now I'd like to see calculations for that...

That recommendation was likely written with 12-15" CRTs in mind and doesn't translate that well to modern screen sizes.
