What does this have to do with "Apple Silicon"? Unless it's not screen deterioration, but something with graphic output.
"According to an investigation by one of the affected users, the Apple iMac screen uses a flex cable that must sustain a voltage of around 50 volts when the screen is set to high or maximum brightness. This causes the connector to burn out over time, it was theorized, resulting in short circuits that cause the black lines to appear on the screen"
Oh. Makes sense it's a cable. This way they can profit on spare cables and keep the reputation of reliable hardware for their fanbase.
