Honestly once set up you don't make changes as often as you think.

Don't see how os 3 changes anything here

And os3 is no longer something you need to wait for.

I'm guessing that the dealer is thinking an experience button that when pressed works through those IR steps to get youtl to Netflix.
 
You will still be using the IR driven box etc and with programming and testing rates and you being the crash test dummy of this idea I would think that $100 of hardware and free drivers with IP control that does what it says on the tin reliably every day is the way to go, not a potentially frustrating 'we think we can make this work' solution, additionally any other roku channel you like can move to that screen, Vimio, YouTube, and so on.
 
It makes the UI/UX so much more efficient.
 
Similarly in the US if you want cable, historically steering the user to a Tivo box gave a better user experience and fewer problem calls than making the IR cable box work perfectly. The right hardware saves lots of frustration later.

Software update is free but they will likely charge you labor to install it and test it

It is but you will need to deal with the pin configuration.

Also easy to swap to a different adaptor the voltage and polarity and current are specified.

Yes. Or the streaming stick if you don't need 4k.
Though maybe they have a 4k stick these days.

No - I don't.

Yes is a valid reply. As this or this would work. That's a very testy reply.

Now you are adding more criteria, must be ethernet must not have fancy remote.

So yes, with all those requirements the premier+ looks to be your best option.

You will need the remote or the app during initial setup to enable ip control. The app is also more convenient to type in passwords etc.

Depending on what other channels you want yiu may also want to add a small memory card to store the channels locally else less frequently used channels get deleted and reinstalled when needed.

I have several Ultras and they have been flawless.

Roku is probably your best option.  The driver is IP based, very reliable and it's free.  You can start Netflix (and other Roku apps) directly from C4.
For outlets, I would look at TP-Link.  

1. Might be able to use an IRUSB for app launching
2. Wemos are pretty good
3. You can control it via IR but not direct app launching
4. Yes, but limited functionality and will need 4sight or the epic driver

Seems Roku is available in Israel

So get this and control it with the free IP driver. This will also bring a direct Netflix and ( any other roku channel) icon to the watch screen in C4.

Rock stable integration and a roku is cheap.
