Not true in general. The screens do actually get updated based on the actual schedule when there are track changes and/or delays. They don't stubbornly stick to the pre-planned schedule. I've seen that happen countless times. That said, occasionally I've seen the screens lag behind reality a bit, usually during and around big disturbances.

This example doesn't support your argument: there's not even a claim there that the screens weren't correct.
