That fits my limited experience in that industry. A TV on the box certainly doesn't protect it against abuse.
When I was a teenager (around 1990 I think) I had a very short (surprisingly well-paying for a teenager) summer job unloading trucks at a warehouse. The first truck contained Atari monitors. One guy showed how it's done: remove the bottom box, and the rest comes tumbling after. Stack them on a pallet, race them through the warehouse on a forklift, take a tight turn so they all fall off again, etc.
My main takeaway was not to buy an Atari monitor that summer.
