Everyone is trying to show off their nerd cred by bragging about how small their terminals are, but you're right. We have bigger, higher res screens for a reason these days: because they're better. And what's better than one terminal window? Two, side by side. Or four. Or four with a browser window open too. Not possible at 300x200, infinitely possible at 4k.
Hell, right now I have three terminals open. One that I'm using to make changes to a file, another that I'm using to just hit the up arrow and enter to scp the file to a remote server after every change, and another to tail the log file in case there's any errors popping up. Could I do it with one window? Sure. Can I use screen to make it seem like I have three? Of course. But why would I bother when I've got tons of real estate?
