The benefit of taller screens is for productivity, not media consumption. More lines of text is preferable to many people, myself included.
Even non-productivity too! I'm a gamer and I find games to be more "fuller" in 16:10, if that makes sense. I mostly play RTSes and A/RPGs, and recently switched from a 32:9 ultrawide to a 16:10 and I find it better, at least for the games I play.
I could not switch back from 21:9 now. If anything opens in 16:9 I get upset.
