My 10" LCD tablet, a cheap €120 Lenovo in Dec 2019, is certainly better for PDF images of magazines and A4/Letter size datasheets & service information. Even the 7.8" Mars is unusable for those despite being higher resolution, because of poorer antialiasing and needing 3.5 approx reading glasses. The stronger the glasses, the less depth of view, though sliding them down nose to make them further from the eyes allows a further distance view.
I'd agree that an approximately 10" eink with the same total number of pixels as 7.8" eink is not worth the cost unless it's for something that NEEDs to be further away, such as on a music stand. I did play the Clarinet for a while and I'd need different reading glasses for a music stand for that.
As an aside I had a friend who was brilliant on the 12 string guitar, 6 string, finger picking and strumming and the piano. I was rubbish at playing any instrument, maybe not too bad on the tin whistle (flageolet really & I have a wooden one) and recorder. Back then we were BOTH astounded that I could pick out any tune never before seen from the sheet music (with one finger, my typing was like that then!) and he couldn't. He had a brilliant ear for music. Hum, whistle or badly pick it out on piano and he could improvise it on guitar or piano. Baffled me. He was baffled that with me being able to read music and some years of piano lessons, clarinet lessons and recorder that I was so rubbish at actually playing an instrument.
