The Russians were right in keeping tubes well beyond what we did.
That's how they got to venus!
There are many areas tubes go well beyond what can be done in solid

Don't forget with out CRT tubes we would not have TV or Computers as we

Also tubes still make nice 'home brew' stuff as compared to where
transistors are going.
