LCDs are an interesting one, mainly because when people say LCD they think of a nice TFT monitor system, and then think, WOW in the 80s they where
like that?!?! OMG thats amazing.
Reality was that the LCD displays used in Tanks to gain back space back then where NOT anything like TFTs, they where slow, suffered from terrible
ghosting, and where more related to calculator displays than full motion video. Any video used on them was minimal, very slow as i said and low
resolution.
So when people say things like OMG they are 15 years ahead! OMG OMG! I just think that its not really what people think, and what they think is
confirmation bias that 'their military' is so far ahead of the 'enemy' when the truth is, meh, not much if at all, depends on lots of things.
