>Multi use rooms require TVs

That seems an overstatement. I now have one in my entire house (don't have kids).

There's a fairly large TV panel on one wall in basically a sitting room. Otherwise I just use a computer. A relative basically has TVs in every room. I guess it maybe made sense when he was rebuilding anyway but it still seems excessive to me who might sit down to watch a movie or show but doesn't have live TV.

But, then, I don't have AC either in Massachusetts.

I was responding to projectors...

But you also seem to also be saying that a lot of rooms require TVs.

Only transitively. The claim was that if you have a “multi use room”, as opposed to a dedicated tv/movie room, you need a TV instead of a projector.

I apparently didn't get the intent that TV=panel. Fair enough. But I do know people who put a TV in pretty much every room and I don't know if a projector is a great solution at this point even for a dedicated room given that you can get 75" (or larger) panels.

I will say that when all sorts of stuff got pulled out of my house for smoke damage mitigation, I also made the conscious decision to just not put back a lot of the things/wiring that I really wasn't using to any degree. A lot has changed (both with respect to technology and myself) to the point where it really didn't make sense to put things back like they were.
