This doesn't affect me currently, but I used to (privately) watch Netflix at work all the time. This policy would (IMO unreasonably) prevent me from doing that. They could probably get most of the effect they want by limiting this policy to TVs and leaving portable devices + computers be.

It actually wouldn't prevent that. They cover that basic scenario and the requirement is that you watch at least one thing from your home IP account at least once every 31 days on whatever device you are going to be using from a remote location. Worst case scenario, you open the Netflix app on your phone and let it "watch" something while you're sleeping, or on a Zoom call on your laptop, etc.
