Could also be useful for doing research with ebooks. Maybe show a list of bookmarks or the table of contents on one screen and the text on the other screen. Or you could compare different texts easier, showing one on one screen and one on the other. Or use one screen for notes. But I guess people that need to actually do productive research will use a desktop anyways.

But using figuratively wouldn’t really ever be correct either. “Literally” is usually used as a hyperbole, so if you would replace it with figuratively it wouldn’t work as a hyperbole anymore. So it would change the meaning. Just because something is meant figuratively doesn’t mean people would use the word figuratively to describe it.

Except that the one with ads is more expensive.
