Oh, my misunderstanding was because didn’t know active-matrix (TFT) OLED displays existed, where thin-film transistors (TFTs) keep the pixels on between updates. I know those little 128x64 SPI OLEDs that are passive and driven line-by-line, I don’t have a big OLED screen.
Well, on some they aren’t.
But yes, TIL that some OLEDs do in fact work continuously thanks to TFTs
That display is using BFI (black frame insertion) which is usually optional to reduce blur.
