CRT advantages over modern displays: - Blackest blacks. Deep detail in dark scenes. - Lower latency. - scanlines make everything look cooler. Especially pixel art. - nes and arcade light guns! Making this kind of experience work on modern lcds means entirely different much more expensive tech.

Something akin to how one might feel looking at the design of a clipper ship.
