Just a random aside. You couldn’t download third party apps on the 3rd generation AppleTV, but without jailbreaking, the community made a Plex app, merely by running a Python script and redirecting DNS to your computer that intercepted calls to the Apple Trailers app. https://github.com/iBaa/PlexConnect I’m sure some inventive person could figure out a creative use for a ChromeCast. But overall, I agree with you.
In My Chromecast Ultra would not start until I began answering 8.8.8.8
