i'm confused. in what way is this a response to the article?

the article laments the sidelining of physical exhibits, in favor of software. you respond that the screens probably have an arduous and expensive procurement process.

what's going on here?

I inferred that a museum exhibit setup might be a package put together by a contractor.

And the contract selection process might put a relatively low priority on amount of screen tech in the package.

Museum might get locked into a vendor tech support package after procuring a digital-display-heavy exhibit. Oh joy.

		It's called a conversation, and yes, those happen here on HN.

		I don’t see the value in condescending here. I think the person you’re responding to highlighted an interesting question/point of confusion of whether digital exhibits are on average more or less expensive than physical exhibits in both the short and long term.
