Even things like live streaming on twitch or youtube is linear.
I think the technical terms are confusing the argument.

Nobody is arguing that live TV will not happen. I believe that in the future, live TV will be streamed, just like it is on the BBC I-Player. That’s all I am saying.

And of course, streamed live events are linear! I have never argued otherwise!

But the existing broadcast channels will no longer exist.
