how bright does a tv or monitor really need to be? I go blind every time a game or movie displays more than 20% white coverage on a 2018 panel. Why is brightness always a selling point.

There should be a tune able setting under "brightness" that automatically darkens the screen when it displays a certain amount of bright colors, especially after certain times.

Like I'm fine flying around a space game at night right up until I come face to face with a star, then I can't see anything for a good 5 minutes. If I turn the brightness down to like 30%, I'm fine at any time of day. Just make the TV do that automatically when I have the option ticked.

It would have to have a ton of settings to not just end up being annoying to use though...
