I mean, of course, physical size... if the displays have a similar

There are such things as large high-def LCD monitors, you know. And they
aren’t even expensive.

Here <https://bitbucket.org/ldo17/screencalc/> is a simple Python script I
published years ago, which lets you enter any combination of aspect ratio,
pixel density (assumed uniform), viewing distance, diagonal, width (in
pixels or distance), height (in pixels or distance), or total number of
pixels, and it will compute the omitted parameters. (So long as you don’t
overspecify, of course.)

Hmm, that could do with a man page ...
