What you said, it's definitely become a style. But, also, a lot of these movies that look like ass on Joe Public's OOGLAMG $130 85" Black Friday TV in his brightly-lit living room actually look awesome if your entire setup is proper, real HDR devices and software, your screen has proper OLED or local dimming, is calibrated to within an inch of its life etc, and you view them in a dark home theater.
True! But I think that movies adapted for TV must be made for the average "good quality" screen, not the state of the art that almost nobody owns. At least they should look decent enough in a good quality (but not top-notch) setup.
Also, the YouTube video I'm thinking of singles out Wicked as seen in movie theaters. The image "as intended" looks washed out and without contrast.
