I work with many developers who use a pair of 1920x1080 monitors. Some enjoy rotating  one monitor 90° so they can read long documents or code listings while using the second monitor for other things like emails and spreadsheets. Personally I use an acer 32inch 2560x1440 monitor that I really like. If you look around there are monitors that let you carve up the display into multiple windows you can set the width and height of. This custom resolution is also available when using windows remote desktop. In the advanced settings you can set the display resolution you want to use. Personally I'd rather have more pixels than I need.
Have an upvote.
I have to work with windows side by side a lot, and mice have scroll wheels. I need width, not height. Gaming in 4:3 is putting you at a disadvantage, as you can't see far left or right.
