I can't wait for someone to just make a data-derived CRT filter and just be done with it. We can literally pipe whatever data we want into a CRT monitor/tv as input and then capture the response and just build a model trained on ground truth. It's like a weekends worth of work and instead of doing it we have years of people trying to derive CRT emulation from first principles.
If it's a weekends worth of work, then do it yourself and see how well it works. This kind of comment is insanely silly because CRTs behave physically different than how modern displays work. The closest approximations we've got all require incredibly high resolution displays to approximate the way the phosphors worked in CRTs. And we're not even close to attaining the level of response time yet.
