I just bought an Iiyama ProLite E431S from newegg. I get it out of the box, plug it in and there is a stuck pixel just off center, like an inch from wheere a crosshair in game would be. It is stuck red and you can see it when you play dark games or go to dark websites.
I have talked to Iiyama and they have agreed to replace it.

My question is. Would you replace an LCD with 1 dead/stuck pixel?

It depends on if the pixel was dead or stuck, and what color it was, and where it was.

For your case, stuck red near the center, it would probably annoy me enough to ask about returning it, yeah.

I am going to send it out since the pixel is right in the middle, very noticable.

Watch the new one come back with 2-3 dead pixels. Thats my luck.
 
2-3 dead pixels around the edges or corners shouldn't be very noticable, at least not as noticable as one dead center, so heres to hoping your replacement doesnt have any in the center :)
 
Dead pixels are sometimes less annoying than stuck pixels.
