Default Why do old trinitron tubes go green?

Hmmm, just sort of in relation to this thread: can anyone tell me if
its worth repairing my Trinitron? Model: G420S.

The red is pretty much dead now, and the blue sometimes work and
sometimes doesn't. For the most part, the green is fine. Here's a video
of it a few months ago (it would flash during warming up but would
eventually stabilize, but the video shows it's totally crapping it...
turning it OFF then ON would fix this):
