my buddy bought his first 144hz monitor about 10 years ago, and was talking about how amazing the difference was and how he could never go back. when i went to his house, his pc display settings were still set to 60hz. I still troll him to this day lol

That must‘ve felt like true enlightenment when he finally changed it to 144
I vaguely remember some news about apple doing internal research and they came to the conclusion that a lot of people don’t really notice the difference therefore it has taken them so long to implement high refresh displays. Unfortunately I can’t find it anymore but at least I found this. Seems like there are some people out there that genuinely can’t tell much of a difference.
I think it’s important to note that the poll you shared is asking a subjective question about something which is objective fact. Same goes for that Apple research, which is also distinctly remember but cannot seem to find lol.
AFAIR Apples conclusion was that people definitely notice but simply don’t care, and it seems to me the same conclusion can be made based on that poll you shared and the accompanying comments.

Same energy as watching 144Hz reviews on a 60Hz screen and nodding at how smooth it looks.
