You're going to get a ridiculous 85" TV, why not go down to a 75" with a much better screen that will be relivant for many more years?

I learned that I'm somebody who wants the best 55" TV at or under $1k so there's that. Don't follow me folks.
Too bad large dumb TV no longer exist. It was much simpler back then…with much dated specs I believe. Plasma TV anyone?

It really doesn't seem to make sense to go in the middle. With a middle models... You are getting small incremental improvements but still making huge compromises while paying a LOT of money (2x-5x or $500-1500) more than the $300 bottom model.
We find our spot of value to performance on that line I guess. That line is not linear though. The quality goes up slowly as prices climbs higher until you hit OLED where performance goes way up for not much more money. Opposite of the way most things are priced.
That being said, I bought a middle of the road. Clearance, one offs, and end of year deals can throw a wrench in my theory
The cost to performance curve is geometric. It's not that much different than sports cars. Every 10 HP costs more than the previous 10, especially when longevity is taken into consideration. The additional cost, expressed in dollars per rtings point per year of life, in going from LED to QLED is way less than going from anything to OLED, especially when burn-in is considered. Additionally, the higher the rtings numbers, the harder it becomes to notice the difference in a non laboratory settings.
