Somebody - probably those guys thinking how they'll sell more stuff, - is operating in reality where "you can, but you shouldn't" can't be said in human languages.
I've been reminiscing parts of my childhood where I'd watch a lot of karate matches and try to repeat moves (I know it sounds stupid). The fights, the lights, the room, my grandma, the summer evening outside matter in these memories. Not how much logical dots there were on that goddamn screen.
One of the most depressing things about now is how, even compared to 10 years ago, people are thinking not about new things to do with tech, but about doing old things with more resources wasted, because that's apparently better.
1920x1080 seems an overshoot sometimes. 8K - why the hell? And with more expensive shorter less reliable cables, other things equal.
I guess hoping for cheap thin LPD displays is useless.
Resolutions higher than fullHD are useful not only for TV in front of your sofa. You need 8k (and even higher) to VR-helmets. Also there already are cinemas with giant displays instead of projectors. Don't be a retrograde.
I already know that launching stuff to the orbit this way is more expensive, but there are situations where a retrograde launch makes sense. Mainly of military nature.
I refuse to accept other meanings of the word.
Tool for the job. For me instinctively a projector and a screen seem to be a better solution than a humongous LCD display. But if that's cheaper (how in the world though), then let them do as they want.
