For me it's a desktop productivity thing. I've been using 27" 1440p monitors for about a decade, and I'd like to high-PPI the desktop and gain a little more screen real estate. To properly double my resolution I'd have to go up to 5K, and that would still be a 27" monitor.
With 8K at 40", I could have the pixel density of a MacBook display, but the screen real estate of two full desktop monitors.
