          What is the use case for 127000 PPI?
          AFAIK retina start about 450.
          VR can utilize 1000+. (AFAIK 2000 is REALLY good!)
          But that leaves more than a factor 60 that I can't see much of a use case for?
          VR can maybe use 5000, I seriously doubt it will make any difference above that.

            I think 8K can be made with 2k ppi.

                  Very creative, maybe some day. But I think it will require serious developments in other areas too.

                        You can't make lenses to focus properly at shorter distances I think, or you would get an extremely narrow FOV.

                              Non-human use cases, would be one. Like, having the ability for machines to "see" highly detailed imagery via camera. Just spitballing. My eyes are shit, so a screen that cool will never be of use.

                                    we already have tiny flexible screens and the means to beam video data to it wirelessly. we also have microscopic chip litography to handle it.

                                      SLA printers would definitely benefit, provided these tiny LEDs can put out the required UV.

                                          Maybe for low end lithography, you can't use normal light for anything high end, already at 7nm it requires EXTREME ultra violet. And the lamps for that cost 100s of millions, to make the shortwave light necessary.

                                          But for low end, it could possibly be used for ultra fast and cheap cycle between tape-out and production?
