Are they even responsible for creating those show branding/advertising graphics used in the examples? I thought that'd be the responsibility of the production companies as they submit content. Although maybe they want some consistency when it's within the Netflix app...

But agreed, I hope it becomes their UI font and not used in everything out of laziness or some pursuit of functional standardization over emotional aesthetics.

I got the impression the article author had put those together.

Seems like an odd thing for them to do. For me it came off as netflix either changing the branding or wanting to show off the font in a creative way.
