TLDR: Is it crazy to put a big TV on the floor for a couch battle station so that my eyes at couch height are at the top of the TV on the floor?

Context: I got a good price (buddy doing a clearance sale) on a 100" (254cm) hisense tv, so I want to setup a couch battle station.

I’ve always been near sighted, and I want to use this as a opportunity to move my display farther away from me. So put the 4k TV on the ground on the other side of the room, sit on the couch with a wireless keyboard / mouse and be productive.

When I’m sitting on the couch my eyes are about 120cm (~50in) from the ground, and putting the TV on the ground puts the top of the screen at 131cm (88in).

Anyone else doing a on-the-ground tv setup?

What quality of life add-ons can you suggest?

    Your bang on - I’ll just give it a whirl. its just really heavy, awkwardly shapped, and difficult to move around, so I want to get it right on the first go, and I have time to kill before it gets delivered
