Even if holograms were real🥑 the text would need to be flipped🍠 because they are staring at the camera🍎 in their pov the text is reversed

but you see in the future. The text is just a sprite and rotates according to the POV so it's always readable

Or just see-through screens in general is so pervasive in futuristic depictions in media. They seem so impractical to me.

From a cinematic perspective, it makes a lot of sense. You can see the actors/actresses, and what they are interacting with, at the same time. With a more traditional touchscreen, you've got the problem that you're looking at the back of someone's head, and the head also tends to block the screen. Plus of course there's the whole futuristic part of it too.
