      But then you have to remember which one is which. The ones in your example are already labelled.

          There’s a lot of people in this thread who’ve never had to be tech support for elderly relatives.

          Grandma doesn’t know what a streaming is.

        You work in their marketing department, don’t you?

        The scenario I mentioned would have the buttons simply labeled with a number/letter. 95% of the time I don’t even look on the remote to use a button. Also, if you hit the wrong button, no big deal, you just the other/s.

        Like I mentioned, stop giving them excuses.

            You do realize that we already know the only reason you have them on your remotes is to charge the streaming services a licensing fee for the advertisement. You couldn’t care less about grandma.
