You might want to reread my comment because you’re just making false claims that are already addressed about color and resolution (my CRT can display 2560x1920), or you’re only acknowledging low quality CRTs. I’ll give you 4K resolution as a flat panel win over tubes, and obviously size and aspect ratio, but I personally don’t see any value in it, as 4K resolution, ultra-wide aspect ratio, and extremely high framerates are simply marketing gimmicks. Obviously, others do see value in these and that’s fine.
Perceiving flicker at 85Hz rate is literally far beyond human capability. 72Hz is an ultimate upper limit on where any flicker is perceptible to a human… and I run my monitor at 120Hz for competitive games lol. It is not physically possible that a human could see flicker at 85Hz. Backlight strobing of an LCD is not related to refresh rate, so would likely by 60Hz matching AC wall power.
Anyway, there are some reasons that OLED is better, just unrelated to display quality. You can probably fit more on your desk than just a keyboard and don’t risk your back when moving your monitor.

No I’m not. OLED has better contrast and a wider color gamut than the best CRT. And it can have high refresh rate without dropping the resolution below the already low native resolution.

So anything that your current hardware can’t do is a “marketing gimmick”? Okay… But at a minimum that would mean that OLED is just “unnecessarily” better. I’m not saying it has to matter to you, but the benefits of high framerate don’t abruptly stop at 120fps, and 4k isn’t even reaching the point of diminishing returns if you’re not using a tiny 17" display.

This is just not true. You may not notice it, but many people can. There’s an issue with LED lightbulbs flickering at 120hz, for example.
Anyway I’m not saying you shouldn’t enjoy your CRT, I think it’s cool! I just don’t think it’s better than OLED in any tangible way.
Well this is getting silly if you’re just going to keep repeating objectively wrong things and also misrepresent what I’ve said (‘anything your current hardware can’t do is a “marketing gimmick”’ 🙄🙄🙄)
Since we’ve left good faith diacussion and entered the realm of silly, fine! You’ve activated my trap card! Can your OLED do this??? presses degauss button You can see 85 Hz flicker, but I can bench press 1200 lbs and run a 60 second mile 🤪
Enjoy your OLED and I’m glad you’re finally getting to enjoy perfect color, true blacks, and high contrast again after all these years!
