Lots of the early VRR monitors had this issue. When the frame rate drops too low they flicker and it was solved by automatically refreshing the display twice when at low frame rates. The image is still there, the pixels only drift slightly, but it is enough to notice it frame to frame below 30-40 Hz, at least with many current LCD panels.

I think most do, my recent LGs have supported 50Hz properly. Just some don't.
