I do wonder if there’s also people whose current TV dies and they think “thin” is a great attribute for some reason and prioritize that over image quality or reputation or something else. Maybe someone with a small apartment or living room wants to maximize available space?

It still might be silly sometimes/often but perhaps not purely an obsession with replacing working tech with marginally “better” tech.
