The only thing mental is putting up with all of these seams. If you're not in a tactical environment that requires this -- say for being able to set up and move on the fly -- then just get a big ass monitor. They're life changing.

    Easier to move windows around using the windows+arrow keys this way. Easier to share screen this way. Easier to switch context this way.

    You can set up your own windows snap patterns and you can share windows instead of full screens.

    Yup. But both are more difficult to use in practice, and I’ve been on enough calls where the person shares their entire 40” ultra-wide, to encourage it. I run with three monitors, and replacing any of them is trivial. The biggest problem is the KVM, and that’s ~$200.
