Having had OLEDs for a while now and never experiencing burn in even in my monitor I believe this issue is either very overblown by the small amount of bad experiences and requires a large amount of misuse before it becomes a problem.

I have seen burn-in personally in my couple of early OLED devices, and saw them pretty quickly, so when I was buying my only TV and seen that RTINGS tests, I decided on an LCD.

My OLED devices fared fine for a lot of years, but I'm not sold on OLED on large surfaces, and a good quality, dynamic backlit LCD is more than enough for my needs.

I don't know what "early" represents for you so cannot comment on that but my close to 10 year old 55 inch tv still doesn't have it.

Either way there's something about OLEDs that my eyes prefer, I cannot verbalize it. Maybe it's placebo :)

When you look at that, there are CNN artifacts in some of the TVs as early as 2 months and 4 months. That's early enough for me.
