Agree on the last part. Some of these bells and whistles are silly, but the common thread in "dumb" TVs is basically that they will be using the cheesiest possible hardware across the board. Which is really saying something since they need to be worse than the entry-level Smart TVs -- which are already cost-reduced to a comical degree.
Some of my other "favorite" things about the dumb TV i bought for the kids room:
* Only a single button - you have to hold it down to turn it off, I think? Single press cycles inputs.
* Stand made of two flimsy pieces of plastic at the sides so you need a super wide table for it.
On the other hand, at least it doesn't need to "boot up." :D
