Clothes and textiles are going to be the major use case. I’m already seeing a huge amount of backpacks and hard cloth patches with screens in it. This will make it the cloth doesn’t have to be hard and flow easily. This is very cool.

12” stretched to 14” is a 16.7% stretch not 20%.

You are right. It doesn't specifically state that this is in fact an ad. That is true. But it is kind of the same as if you see a popular brand in a movie. Not an actual ad, but has the same purpose.
Me, and a few people in comment section, just noticed that on this sub there's a sudden flow of appraisal for Apple products. After a 4th (I've seen only 4 so far) post in a short period of time it becomes a bit suspicious, don't you think? Considering the whole time of existence of Apple Watch, it is suspicious to me.

not Zuck, Apple. Meta is gunning for VR. Apple is pushing AR.

Or to include buttons underneath the screen that you actually press. Maybe an actuated grid under the screen so that the "buttons" can move to where the info on the screen is. Like imagine touchscreens in cars where you can actually feel buttons without looking.

You don't want a display that you can't break? Or one you can add to surfaces that are not flat, projector screens, tablet that unrolls, smaller phones, and many other things.

This means it is a 14” screen but due to shrinkage it is 12”. My husband should have these problems!

(14 - 12) / 12 = 2 / 12 = 0.16 ~ 0.2 => 20%
It's just rounding .16 to .2

Damn! That’s so awesome and why! But why though? Why does it need to be stretched so much?

You actually just stated that the most popular tech company has a bunch of articles on the gadgets subreddit. At best you thought of a conspiracy

12 inches stretches to 14 inches = 2 extra inches. How is that 20%?

So they paid for product placement in an ad like company’s do for movies? I won’t hold my breath for you to provide no proof on that conspiracy also!
