  You dated yourself.  Vacuum tube TVs with tens of thousands of volts
and plenty of heat were routinely chock full of dust.  Dust was not
harmful and did not create fires.  Dust remained because nobody wanted
to stick their hand in there. Dust would not start a fire.  So it was
left inside hot, high voltage TVs.
