16K monitors? What size of monitor do you expect to use? If you sit 2 feet away from your monitor, you'd need a 57 inch monitor to resolve the pixels.


There is basically no upper bound to the display resolution people want, even if their eyes can't physically resolve it. Graphic designers and gamers will still swear there's a difference. It's like audiophilia for the visual system.


At a certain point people will prefer large and more monitors over increased resolution. If I could buy two 16k monitors instead of one 32k monitor I'd do it, and that puts a soft upper limit on the resolution.
