I think as long as you don't cover the speakers, all should be good. Plus, as long as the TV doesn't stick out too far from the wall, to block the sound, you should be fine. I'm sure others will be able to give you some advice as well. Good luck.

Worth upgrading a TV size if it encroaches on in wall speakers?
Have a 65 inch screen with in wall speakers that basically looks identical to this link, with some space between the edges of the TV and speakers. https://www.techsounded.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/Top-15-Best-In-wall-Speakers-in-2019-1.jpg
I would LOVE to upgrade to a 77 inch, but it looks like the tv would come basically flush to the speakers on both sides if it’s perfectly centered.
Would that look weird, or mess up the audio dynamics, or am I overthinking it?

How far off-center do you have regular seating? If you have regular seating that is going to have one of the speakers blocked by the far edge of the TV, then that will be noticeable in that seating spot.
Go for the 77 and increase your level of Immersion.

This is for the living room, we have a bigger projector setup in the basement for family and guests viewing, but I’ve gotten spoiled by HDR
This would likely cause some diffraction of those two speakers. However, if your center remains unobstructed and your usage is mainly movies/TV, that is very unlikely to make much difference since 60-80% of the output comes out of the center not the L/R.I would LOVE to upgrade to a 77 inch, but it looks like the tv would come basically flush to the speakers on both sides if it’s perfectly centered.
