You've brought up another interesting point.
Antique radio restoration is still a popular hobby, because you can still use a restored radio. Sure, if AM were phased out too, you could still buy one of those AM-100 transmitters, but that would have a profound impact on the hobby.
One wonders if eventually restoring vintage televisions will be akin to going into a museum, unbolting the 14th century Viking ship from the suspended cables on the ceiling rafters, and trying to put it in the water.
