> other people shouldn't watch it either.

Where did i suggest that? I only showed that what i did is a possible path. At no point i judged the other paths.

Watch my phrasing.. "... is an option", "you don't have to ...".

I suspect you are reading too much between my lines.

Yes because without such great insight, everyone would have thought that TV was a necessity in life like food water and shelter…

Worse, they think they need an TV because its "used by 95% homes in the US".

Would you say it’s good advice if someone needs to know how to change a tire - “I haven’t owned a car in 10 years. Just don’t buy a car?”

Its only unreasonable if you need the car for something. By implication, i assume having a TV is a necessity for you.

If you want a TV in your life so badly, you can say just that. Like "But i love Star{gate,trek,wars} and i can't watch it comfortably without a TV/Streaming". The thing with the 95% is a unecessary pretense.
