am a happy user of Itsycal[2], and the form factor..
some context as to how I use the same, for my biases will be clear:
1. mostly see today's and tomorrow's events
2. click on event -> click on video conferencing link -> browser opens :)
this is, different.
1. default view is BIG.. without the calendar events to start off. with the calendar events, this is take up half your screen big.
2. only event names are shown, which is fine, until you consider that all the names are cropped and you can only see the "(first 5 chars) ... (last 5 chars)<space>(calendar name)" (this might be an issue long calendar names) [1]
3. events are not actionable in any form, which doesn't help when you need to get information, like, the meeting location, or video conferencing link.

my initial thoughts: i'm not the target audience here. that said, good luck :)
