It’s harder to both obtain and maintain CRTs, so for cost reasons the museum probably sent for LCDs. Exhibits sometimes have to accept compromises or they can’t happen at all.
As a retro games and tech enthusiast in the UK, it seems a lot harder to even find good CRTs here. I think British people were a lot more enthusiastic in scrapping them, perhaps because of our smaller house sizes.
