I have a MacBook Pro and a Mac Pro and recently one of my monitors died (LED Cinema Display logic board most likely).
Apple had just announced the discontinuation of their Thunderbolt Display which is considered by many to be obsolete due to its non-retina 2560 x 1440 resolution.
So, I considered the exact monitor featured in this Ask HN as well as several other ultrawide/4K monitors and low-end monitors [0, 1], but eventually I went with the discontinued and "overpriced" Thunderbolt display because it has a Thunderbolt port and USB 3 ports.
That is, the ability to connect peripheral devices to my computer actually ranks pretty high on my list of must-haves for a monitor.
I'm not thrilled at the dearth of choices for monitors with built-in cameras, mics, and high-throughput I/O, and I wish manufacturers other than Apple had offerings that matched high-resolution with high-throughput.
