https://www.dxomark.com/flicker-the-display-affliction/
Basically PWM flicker applies to all displays and not only OLED. The only difference is that in most smartphones with OLED display the flickering is more visible because the manufacture used a low PWM frequency (about 250-500Hz). On a LCD (they tested only Mi 10T Pro) the frequency is at least 5 times higher so you don't feel that flickering so much.
I also found information that OLED flickering isn't visible on OLED TV because they use good PWM controllers.
So basically @Czuba was right. OLED flickering is the fault of the manufacture because they don't use a high frequency PWM controller.

Your eyes could also get tired even with black background (more focusing in a given time period)
Burn ins are not *just* related to heat and every orgnic diodes are prone to this issue one way or another

Sorry but I didn't find anything and you also can't send anything so to sum up there isn't a problem.
"I too can't bear PWM flickering of OLED."
PWM flickering is independent from screen type. If you had this problem then that means it's the fault of the manufacture and not the screen.
"Find LCD is good for Reading and can be kept on for hours without worrying about burn-in."
OLED are event better for reading because you can save energy by setting a black background and white text. This has another benefit. Your eyes won't get tired because the contrast is infinity so your eyes have less work to do.
What you mentioned here isn't burn in but ghosting. LCD aren't resistant to this either. At my home I have 2 semi professional monitors and after about 3h of displaying a static image they show already ghosting effects.
Burn in on OLED displays are related to heat. You would have to set 100% brightness and display a bright static image for multiple days to get a burn in. It's not that easy as people think.
That's why manufactures started to add a heatsink to they OLED TV.
Also we are talking about tablet and smartphone displays. No one is using they device in that way. The only situation is when you use navigation. I travel quite often and nothing happened to any of my phones. Of course I change my phone every 3 years so they aren't too old.
"OLED is thumbs up in Sunlight. Else, LCD is doing it's job pretty good"
That also isn't true. On sunny day you need to set maximum brightness. That's really bad for a OLED display because they get hot. So LCD are much better for sunny days but on every other situation OLED are better.
The most important think is to know how to correctly use a OLED display so it can last really long.

No such option of Never since iPhone 12.

Design looks beatiful with slim bezels, aspect ratio perfect, but the absence of microsd slot is just a deal breaker for me. Currently only Samsung tablets still offer card slot but their bezels are still thicker and more expensive.

It also costs less so will be cheaper to replace because of lower part cost. I've never experienced an LCD randomly fail no matter how old but have seen more than once with OLED.
LCD also has much less artifacts. I've noticed OLED noticeably discolouring at higher refresh rate but never with LCD.
Yes OLED looks nice but when considering these issues I'd prefer LCD anyday because 60hz is just not usable anymore. OLED colours may be great at 60hz but are noticeably inaccurate at higher refresh rates. Only advantage is ability to turn of individual pixels but it's an overrated aspect. Other things outweigh this advantage.
