Sounds great... except... think about what happens when one of those backlighting LEDs burns out. All of the sudden, your 'local dimming' become permanent. Sounds far worse than a stuck pixel, and it is guaranteed to happen.

It's about as likely as your picture tube burning out, which is way more of a problem than a single pixel, and it's guaranteed to happen eventually.

Do you have any idea how long it takes for an LED to burn out???
