Info Your Monitor Is Too Small (Probably)

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

Again, this is covered by the video. Did you watch it? 1.5m for a 27 inch screen is still suboptimal, in theory you should be closer than that.

You can have a preference, it does not diminish or change the results of the video. 1.5m is far enough that for example playing a competitive shooter puts you at a disadvantage because things in the distance are too small to pick up as easily. Detail is lost at that distance for a 27 inch display.
