Sort of, but doing a stare-and-compare, two screens beats two virtual desktops in productivity. It’s the difference between being able to set two documents side by side on a desk vs stacking them. There’s more friction in the swap than in the glance.
Also, being able to have VC people on one screen while full screening content, or full screening content while playing a game is valuable.

They're enough also for diffing source code, as long as the lines are not excessively long (around 100 chars fit on each side; comparing 2 lines long statements is acceptable).. I think a use case where a single (1080p) screen is significantly inconvenient is for windows with a fixed shape, for example, debugging a videogame.
