And you'd be wrong because resolution has gone up. I can ably read very small text on a 1080p screen which I wouldn't be able to on a lower res one. The larger form factor means I can take advantage of all that extra DPI ably.
I know resolution has gone up. I didn't say otherwise. I can also read small text.
Neither of those points is an argument against what I claimed. I was stating that resolution has gone up, along with screen sizes, but that the default text rendering size has not gotten any smaller (i.e. they're not putting more stuff on the screen).
I think this point is backed up by the fact that the rendered text size has not changed in any appreciable way.
