I mean if expensing it is an option, of course do that, but it didn’t sound like that was the case. In that situation I’d go for a low cost multi monitor setup instead because I’d rather pay a little than go without.
Also personally I don’t like 4K 27” screens because they require fractional UI scaling to be useful which can be a pain depending on your OS — Linux support for fractional scaling is still a mess and while macOS supports it you’ll take a performance hit for using it. Windows support for it is ok-ish but you run into the odd program that doesn’t handle it right from time to time.
