The screen sizes thing is pretty recent. Back in the day when we still used CRT’s it was common to use centimeters for TV sizes. It only really changed once TV’s got bigger.
I only have vague recollections of those days, but if you ask me, we used to measure TVs by the Kg... Those things were beefy AF.
