Distance to the TV will initially be about 8 or 9 feet because my desk will have to go in an area behind the sofa - until I retire anyway. Wife is taking over my home office space upstairs.

that question was directed to C-T.
I saw you had previously answered that question.
I'm losing track! Or losing my mind, maybe both.
Here you go ...........
I'm in the ball park. Next TV may be slightly larger anyway.
Nice chart. As I mentioned, we'll be sitting about 8 to 9 feet away until I retire from work. Until then, my desk and office area will reside behind the sofa.Being as close to the screen as we will be, I find it even more important to mount it somewhat close to eye level.

I have a 60 inch Sony And I am about 8 feet back. As this is a rental flat I have the TV on a stand - my eyes are just under the halfway mark up the screen. The TV is used for typing this message, movies/TV and music. I think it's a nice size.
I'd prepare for as big a screen as possible - I like seeing these 90inch and up screens in Hong Kong Shopping malls - 6 figures US for a TV is a bit silly and a bit weird to see such expensive TVs in a mall. But hey - one day they will come down in price and you'll be prepared.
In the early 2000's a Pioneer Elite top-of-the-line Plasma retailed at $25K. And they sold like hot cakes.
In our media room, our viewing distance from a 100" projection screen is 10'. Recessed ceiling lights provide illumination without destroying the picture. It's much more involving than the 65" Sony in the living room.
My vintage Velodyne HGs-10s and HGS-15s have switches that shunt the internal crossovers. I use the shunts because the inputs to the subs are either bass managed or LFE.
