Plenty of brand new displays are still sold that only go up to 60hz, especially if you want high quality IPS panels.

They aren't as common now, but when making a list of screens to replace my current one, I am limiting myself to IPS panels and quite a few of the modern options are still 60hz.

Yeah, I personally still have a lot of 60 Hz panels. One of my favorites is a 43" 4K IPS. I don't think I will be able to get that at 120+ Hz any time soon.

Of course, this isn't a huge deal to me. The additional latency is not an unusable nightmare. I'm just saying that if you are particularly latency sensitive, it's something that you can affordably mitigate even when using a compositor. I think most people have been totally fine eating the compositor latency at 60 Hz.
