The issue you're experiencing with the LED backlight flickering on one side is not uncommon in older monitors. It can often be attributed to aging components, especially capacitors that may need time to fully charge after being turned off. Since you switch the monitor off completely and then turn it on, this could help confirm whether the problem lies in the power-on process or the display itself. Keep an eye on any other symptoms and consider checking for loose connections or dust buildup.

It's possible a few capacitors are faulty. Are you experiencing any unusual noises while powering up?

I thought that too. There were no humming noises, and the startup time looks typical. Swapping a capacitor appears straightforward, but replacing it actually feels tricky.
