That's because most people are buying 1080p native displays. Blurays are all 1080p 24, down converting diminishes the image.

720 is limited, except for mobile.

And no one makes a crt now.  Tubes are dead.

Yes, but almost nobody is watching ANYTHING on a native 1080i display
anymore.  That is certainly a reason to diminish support for that
format.   1080i CRT based systems were the first consumer HD displays
but mostly have disappeared from the market these days.  I don't miss
mine at all.
