That's what I thought too. Those old Trinitrons held up well as did most of their stuff. I have a '69 Trinitron that works flawlessly and shows no sign of ever being repaired. The thing that killed most of them was the "instant on", people would leave them plugged in and it killed the CRT. It didn't surprise me to see Matsushita no ichiban, they made really rugged stuff over the years.
