I suspect the main issue is economies of scale. There is little demand thus there are no multibillion dollar plants optimized for delivering them at scale. (The same reason why 8K TVs are not yet cheap.)


There are so many kiosks out there though. It's more that I think because it's a commercial audience, the pricing hasn't reached down too much.

All that said, it's still odd there's not at least one boutique option for hobbyists.


There used to be tons. Heck there were even options we used to use where you could overlay over your CRT. That market has leveled out to what the market wants at this point.
