Motion smoothing is ruining cinema

I don’t understand why TV manufacturers can’t just have dynamic frame rate change to match the content like Apple ProMotion (https://m.gsmarena.com/understanding_apples_promotion_displa...)

Newer TVs are starting to support Dynamic refresh rate, ostensibly for gaming modes.

I wonder if this tech becomes mainstream, it will eventually start to be used for normal content.

All TVs are capable of displaying 50Hz European content natively. Converting 24fps to that is trivial - play it at 25fps(not noticeable) and every frame twice.
