Monitors have different (worse for distance viewing) panels, so they aren’t a replacement. Also, the price of an excellent non-ad-supported computer (eg Apple TV) to replace the one that comes in the TV is $140. That’s rounding error vs the price of a midrange TV, and it shouldn’t be a selling point in the > ~ $1000 range.
