- What if your monitor has a bullet hole you want to avoid looking at?
  
  Why does your monitor have a bullet hole?
  
  Why do you ask so many questions? ಠ⁠_⁠ಠ
  
  Why don't you answer them?
  
  Because then words like "evidence" and "premeditated" get thrown around.
  
  Because asking and answering too many questions was exactly how they ended up with a bullet hole in their monitor.
  
  I came back to my office after the new year's break and a stray bullet, from I'm assuming celebratory gunfire, was shot through the wall and hit my screen. Admittedly it wasn't a hole and the screen was totally unusable after, but I'll be a close n=1.
  
  You don't?

- It’s a novelty. I for one deeply love unusually shaped monitors and UXs.
- Could be useful for an interactive art installation or something alike.
- Possibly to run those strangely shaped outdoor billboard signs
- in case you use a pear phone as a daily driver

- It could be useful if you live in a submarine that is always emerging/submerging.
- 4th nerve palsy posse has been asking for this for years.
- It's not about why. It's about the freedom to do.
