>isn’t LCD newer and the new standard

Evolution in things like energy consumption, heat generated during use, cost of production, size/weight, etc., can all make LCDs better for both manufacturer’s and consumers without improving the picture quality. “The new standard” is not a hard and fast metric for quality.
