Importance, or lack of work contribution? Smaller screen = works less.

True for the phone and tablet, but for any sort of computer that is not true

I work on a laptop with virtual desktops and I am much more productive that way than with a big screen... Or two big screens.

Everything is in the center of my field of view, I know which VD of my 3x3 grid holds what. It's much more efficient for me than bigger screens could ever be. And that is not for lack of trying!

It just depends on the person.

Exactly, this is why the most 'important' person just uses a phone they are the most efficient with the smallest screen
