You have to understand the various TV types. OLED especially can look like crap if you don’t tune it right, because the pixels go on and off instantly, at least if what I heard was correct.

480i was built for the exact opposite, CRTs where pixels fade slowly.

OLED is irrelevant because the display isn't driven with interlaced data like a CRT TV might have been - instead the no matter the technology, all pixels are updated at the same time. The deinterlacing needs to happen before that and that was also needed for many displays back when DVDs were common.
