Look: It doesn't matter what you think is and isn't a TV, the fact of the matter is that the target market doesn't have one of these and doesn't care. They've got their $300 65" Hisense from Walmart, and guess what? Those TVs don't have DisplayPort. That's the point.

Now please stop being a pedantic jerk just for the sake of a it and go away.

You're the one who keeps moving the goalposts.
