You deserved to be criticized. Get something in a proper aspect ratio and you can find something suitable.

If you don't mind buckling springs and blank the keys yourself an IBM Model F over PS/2 fills all these requirements.
16:9 is not terrible, as long as you buy something at least 22". Plus, all the new monitors are 16:9--even 16:10 monitors are dead. If you want ancient monitors with panel uniformity/backlight bleed issues, then you can buy those. Really, I don't even understand what you're implying; can you point me to something that meets my requirements in another aspect ratio? Doubt it. Two 16:9 monitors VESA mounted + a CRT is the setup I've been accustomed to for a while, I don't see why I should scrap it for a meme ultrawide.
Those things cost a fortune.
No one buys a performance monitor with gloss but you, user. Maybe this is like traps and you should just admit you're gay rather than awkwardly argue why gloss is fine and get an Apple LCD.

OP, any pics of a glossy monitor vs a matte one?
Having what should be an innocuous preference means I like taking it in the ass? I don't believe I came off as gauche; my two main reasons are a) the colors appear more vibrant, this is important because LCDs inherently have poor contrast levels and b) my CRT is reflective, and I'd like my monitor to be as well. This is hardly a "performance monitor" why is it absurd that I'd want a 1440p monitors that refreshes higher than 60Hz? 1080p 60Hz monitors were common even in 2011, I'd like to move away from those.

Use youtube-dl to stream this, he talks about the "wetness" I mention.
You do know you can turn the backlight off?
Model M has 2-key rollover. F is N-key
