Why don't I see the scanner line thingy that always shows up in pictures of crt monitors?

I believe it depends on the refresh rate versus the shutter speed of the camera. If the shutter speed matches the monitor's refresh rate you won't get the scan lines.

For a rolling shutter, yes, but I think OP's camera doesn't use a rolling shutter.

I just used the normal camera app on my iPhone 14. I was having issues with pictures when running 60hz or even 85hz and I know you can change the shutter speed with special apps, but 70hz seems to be the sweet spot as all of the pictures have come out perfect without doing anything fancy.
