No, there's still plenty of them on the market; they're just marketed under the name "monitor" instead of "television".

Are monitors the size of large televisions comparable in price?

Yes they are comparable in price. And in fact they are often a bit cheaper than the price of the "smart" TVs.

I have seen a 55" TV with none of that "smart" shit for ~$320

whereas its "smart" counterpart is $100-300 more depending on whether it's refurbished or new.

Or a commerical display, for triple the price.
