I just want to plug my chromecast or my Apple TV. No need for apps or updates. And please no WiFi.

Couldn't you just buy a normal monitor? And then plug whatever you like into the HDMI/DP port?

People have, but you’re paying a premium for monitor features you cannot use and losing TV features.

For example HDMI ARC and CEC, speakers, a remote, antenna tuner, et al.

I think it may be more rational for smaller sizes.
