One Giant Monolithic LED

LED's are getting very bright but they're still point light
sources.
An array of LED's on a PCB has to be created to backlight a LCD
computer monitor.

Why the individual packaging? Can a big 2ft x 4ft slab of "die
material" containing hundreds of packed in LED's be created?

Is it a semiconductor manufacturing problem or just physically
not possible?

I'll guess at answers:
1) Won't fit in the machines
2) It's custom and there's little demand
3) It would be too delicate
4) Just not possible due to construction of the LED
5) Heat problem
6) The word of the day is "____________"
7) You waste of food, stop making internet pollution and use
Google.
8) It's a secret :)
