Screens degrade? I’ve been using the same one for 10+ years and I bought it used for $20.

Yeah they degrade. Tech has improved a lot and they don’t degrade as fast as screens from the 2000’s but they still degrade. OLED more so than LCD. But if they degrade gradually and evenly you won’t really notice.

Note this doesn't really happen to CRTs. Look I just want a modern CRT monitor.

Also doesn't really happen to LCDs. It depends on the liquid crystal alignment technology to a degree and the backlight, but realistically, an LCD will not fail without operator error.
