55" isn't too small if sat at the correct distance, that's the whole point of this debate.

No the reason it looked good was because of the resolution which is why I used the word crisp.

I don't want to go round in circles. Resolution can't just equal size. It's size in relation to viewing distance that matters. 4k is not pointless on small screens if you are sat close enough to benefit.
I'm rather confused by this - the optimum distance applies to SD, with HD TVs you can sit where you want and get a decent viewing experience -sitting a foot away you would still be able to see clearly.
