Burning out is still big problem on OLED for PC monitor. PC monitors should be used more years than smartphone and tend to display same content.

Some things could be counter acted with software (make desktop taskbar only visible when mouse reaches bottom of screen, etc.), but I would be interested in some real life data as to how long it would take for even burn out over the whole screen, till it drops as much, that the quality degrades to TFT level.
(there is a guy on Youtube who installed an OLED TV as his main monitor: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AXKhYH3BaIA&t=36s)

I'd be okay buying a new OLED monitor every year if they were available in the format I want (large ultrawide) and with low latency scalers, high refresh reates and without privacy destroying "smart" features plaguing TVs. Anything to get out of the crappy tradeoffs there are with backlit displays.

Yep, agreed. I mentioned the CX 48 because it's the first one that can somewhat reasonably be used as a monitor.
MicroLED is another promising tech that has a lot of OLED upsides, but no burn-in issues.

Iiyama's MVA3 displays are, to my knowledge, significantly in front of other LCD styles (e.g. TN, IPS) as far as contrast, especially from an angle, is concerned.
Unfortunately my desk's dear centerpiece, https://iiyama.com/gl_en/products/prolite-x4071uhsu-b1/ , has been EOL'd about 2 years ago, because I have been unable to find a replacement that's not worse, while staying in the 40~50" range. Any concrete suggestion would be greatly appreciated.
OLED is clearly the way forward - accurate colors, excellent contrast, no bleeding, no uniformity issues, proper HDR, excellent response time. Except OLED doesn't come to PCs.
