I think it is more that serif fonts are bad on screens as the resolution is not good enough in general. For printed matter I prefer serif.

I think the research shows serif fonts are best for print because the serifs guide your eyes along the line, but on transmissive screens the extra information just gets in the way. Also, right justified text is harder to follow, which is of topic, but a pet peeve of mine.

This is a normal post I'd say that screens are more than capable now
this is an early 2000s mindset

This is a normal post Possibly true
it's been ten years since I did any of this stuff, though on the other hand, it may be even more relevant if most people are reading on their phones...?

This is a normal post Meh. Yes and no.
If the pixel density is high enough (a 27" 4K screen, for example), then you'll have no issue with serif font legibility, but assuming the average office screen is a 23" 1080p display, the serifs are still going to be problematic.
