The Mandalorian was probably a very likely candidate for this kind of approach, since it's essentially a western, meaning a lot of wide landscape shots.

The LED screen approach works nicely for fairly uncomplicated background geometry, like a plain. Try shooting Spiderman climbing up walls on that, and things will get tricky fast.

As the article notes, slow camera moves are a plus as well. The reason given is technical, but I also wonder how far you could really push the camera motion even if tracking lag wasn't an issue. The background is calculated to match the camera's viewpoint, so I expect it would be very disorienting for the actors if the camera was moving at high speeds.

Spiderman climbing up a wall can be done via forced perspective. It's also an action scene, reducing the need for a background to help the actor. And some brave souls will Harold Lloyd it.
