I do not really have a body for this. I was not aware that this is a thing and still feel like this is bs, but maybe there is an actual explanation for HDMI Forum’s decision that I am missing.

      Because we don’t all live in dorm rooms sitting at desks watching TV. Some of us need something besides a 32-in.

        I have enough back problems to remember a time when a 32 inch television WAS a big-screen. My family had a 35 inch Sony Trinitron that weighted as much as a motorcycle. You do not NEED a 50+ inch screen.

      Projectors have improved dramatically over the years. Any white wall can easily become a 100+inch display that’s good enough for movies.
