The screens are for the conductor, not the musicians. They're following the conductor's direction and don't need to know what cues they're playing to, nor can they take their eyes off their score.
There simply isn't the money in the budget to bugger about with clever ideas in a sync session. Merely having a session with an orchestra is already a luxury for many productions, because most composers can knock out a reasonably convincing orchestral soundtrack in VSL at a fraction of the cost.
An orchestra is an extraordinarily efficient musical machine if they're doing what they were trained to do. If you want innovation, don't hire an orchestra - experiments get very expensive very quickly when you're paying ~$50 a minute for the privilege.
