Is 4k in a 25'' monitor a waste?

There's a nicely priced Dell IPS 25 inch 4k monitor. But is it even worth having such resolution on a screen this size?
 
Absolutely. Any text will be very well defined and nice to read when DPI scaling is used. That said, I don't think it's a good purchase as you could easily have a much bigger display in 4K and still achieve really good text rendering.
 
Yep, to my eyes anyway. Honestly 27" might even still be too small.
 
I wouldn't buy one myself.

But that is just my two cents, it would seem to me 4k on a small screen would not spending the money on it.

If I had I couple million dollars in the bank I might give it a go on a whim, but reality says I would not piss with it.
