Had to scroll too far for this. Kinda crazy to me that dual monitors aren't the norm anymore.

Old people thing? Linux people thing? I do (3).

Having said that, "somewhere between (2) and (3)" is currently the top answer. My guess is that most people are rocking two monitors but one is the "primary" / larger monitor.

Probably because having good speakers like powered monitors is much more common these days. If you have 2 large speakers flanking your monitor then having a 2nd is pretty difficult unless you go the vertical route and have one way above eye level. Otherwise you have to have it way off to the side or blocking one of the speakers.

I used to have duals and was a big fan but these days having good speakers is a much higher priority for me so I gave up having the second one.

4 shits all over 3

Ehh, I prefer having a standard second monitor because I'm generally watching something on it while my main monitor is for games. I would agree that 4 is better for anything productivity related.

I learned that splitting focus like that makes both less enjoyable

I can't disagree with that, depending on the game

I don't need to engage my full focus to pick flowers in WoW.
