This was never not the case for me.
In CRT era there was just no contest, the resolution (the amount of data displayed) alone was worlds apart. Yet I only ever had one CRT connected at a time.
Once the LCDs became minimally viable for me I just never disconnected the previous LCD when upgrading/buying another one (I've always been a "main screen + support screens" sort of operator).
Finally LCDs and OLEDs became just too big (and tiling much much better) to have "too many" monitors.
Yet there are times when I wish I had a mini monitor (one of those candy bar screens where I would just have Signal or something, about 480×1920 pixels, they are cheap but I then remember how silly the need is and don't want to further consumerism for needles thighs).
I remember when one crt was like 800x600 and another 1280x1024. Worlds apart.
Another time, another battle.
Those Trinitron tubes were beautiful
Iiyama gang here, 35 kilos and what was it, 22"?
I was using dual monitors back before LCDs became the norm. I always had a splitting headache from looking at the screens. It went away with LCDs.
