Is there any advantage to having a larger/er screen, ok in modern terms, lcd or led, situated further away, over a smaller screen that's situated much closer?

In the 80s studies showed a larger screen cut down on eye strain/fatigue and therefore it was in the interests of productivity for companies to buy big ones. Not that many caught on.

What if situate a 10-13" lcd say 12" or so from your face. Is this still a situation that is less advantageous then a much larger screen (20"+) 20-28" away? Don't hold me to those exact numbers.
