Maybe I don't use tvs the way most people do. But the most pessimistic lifetime estimates for my use case on a 30,000 hour panel is 41 years. I don't really see a television as something to pass on to my heirs so that seems like a solved problem for non-commercial use. I've had televisions fail but it has always been a connector or capacitor that I could replace with a sautering iron and about 46 minutes of disassembly/re-assembly |

I also consider life estimates as very fluid. My gf’s Hisense 75 inch can’t be more than a few years old and it has already gone to pot with weird circles visible on any scene with a white or light background. 8 hours a day for a few years is only ~6,000 hours, far less than 30k.
