LCD TVs can still improve via faster refresh rates, strolling backlights, and smaller local dimming zones. If the last part can be made small enough, then it would be very hard to tell the difference between an LCD screen and a emissive display. These facts shouldn't be ignored by display companies.

Do they still get burn in? that was my only problem with non-LCD TVs.
No, they still get burn in. They also aren't very bright out of the box, and they get dimmer over time. They're also more expensive than LCDs despite having a limited lifespan. I've never been a fan of OLEDs for these reasons and my theory is that manufacturers want to sell them because they have a limited life span so they can sell more.
MicroLED I'm super pumped for though. No clue when we can actually expect to buy them though.

I bought a QLED LCD 8k Samsung in 2019 and tbh it’s an incredible display because of its high nit count, local dimming zones and AI upscaler.
I’m a bit out of the loop, can these new technologies go to that resolution yet?
