Which is basically what that video showed - they only stopped noticing the difference and preferring the higher frame rate when they were playing Doom, and those are likely people who play more FPS and are just used to the higher refresh rate for competitive purposes.
White Out said he played Civ 6 and Cities Skylines. Those are basically the perfect example of games where your framerate stops mattering at a low count, and resolution makes a massive difference. If he said he plays a bunch of COD and Overwatch, I'd be right there with you saying "yeah, get a 27" 144hz screen".
And again, I almost always game in 1080p or 1440p 120hz depending on which screen I'm using so it's not like I'm hugely biased here.
Edit: I will say that if I could only use one monitor for everything, and I had to keep it at least somewhat reasonable (because otherwise the answer is just "buy a CRG9"), I'd be looking at a 34" 1440p monitor with a refresh rate of 100hz+

Then why pay the premium for a 4K monitor if you're almost always running games at 1080p or 1440p? Sounds like a waste of money to me.
