Etymology
'exclusively-displayed' originates from the combination of 'exclusive' and 'display', where 'exclusive' comes from Latin 'exclusivus', meaning 'shut out', and 'display' from Old French 'despleier', meaning 'unfold'.
'exclusive' changed from the Latin word 'exclusivus' and 'display' from the Old French 'despleier', eventually forming the modern English term 'exclusively-displayed'.
Initially, 'exclusive' meant 'shut out', and 'display' meant 'unfold', but together they evolved to mean 'shown to a select group'.
