Screen shows streaks, distorted and sometimes shaky display

I am newbie who has opened other things but a laptop. The screen shows one persistent mark which seems like a hairline crack from the inside of the display, a slightly curved one from the top under the camera toward the right.

There is absolutely no crack on the outside of the screen. There are a few long vertical lines displayed under this presumed crack.

The images were quite shaky at some point making it hard to see anything (see the repeating Apple logos) or click on anything. Sometimes it looks like an old 1950s TV (see one of the images) with a black vignette.

I took it to a local repair shop that quoted CAD$800 (or more) for an aftermarket screen since it's hard to find. Can this be a T-CON board issue or the whole screen need a replacement? The [product|IF455-001|IFIXIT display assembly|new_window=true] seems unavailable though I have added my email to get a notification. The price seems like a lot for a 2019 laptop but I want to use it longer at the same time. Quite a dillemma!
