>given that the data they're dealing with is films and TV shows, rather than, say, payment details.

I definitely have had to enter payment details on Netflix.com before

We're talking about why they encrypt their media streams.

I'm not super familiar with how the TLS handshake and sessions work, is it straightforward to mix and match like that? e.g. tell the client that this particular webpage (like with payment info) requires TLS 1.3, but less important pages (like a movie) can fall back to TLS 1.0 or SSL or whatever?
