a) Glass won't become obsolete as it still requires an eyepiece for magnification.
b) it's very expensive for high quality.... prohibitively (like, the cost of a top-tier telescope). And yuo still need the scope (and the eyepieces)
c) also, you don't get colour in NV
Well, when we are able to make color astrophotos, why not color in an NV device ?
