How important is an LCD screen on your streamer?

Love it!  It actually gets people to take notice.  I have one with and one without.  I use displays in Roon though with both.  Full size  tv screens are even better! Roon controller on a tablet displays nicely as well.  So less important with Roon. 

I cant see that far

I chose my Pulse specifically because it has no screen. I don't like any additional light in my room or electronics in my components. I even use little black stickies to cover unnecessary LEDs. I place them so just a sliver of light peeks through. 

Not important to me my Auralic Aries has a screen but I have it set to off it just comes on for a few seconds when the track changes. It's too far away for me to see clearly anyway though it does look nice.

What are they for ? Can you even see them 8-10’ away? My Innuos doesn’t any & you control the unit w/ their app on a iPad. Seems to me the $ allocated to them would be better directed to improving sound quality.
