I get past that interface quickly as it is. Is the "IR blaster" that much better? Enquiring minds want to know.
One remote, that's what does it for me. "Alexa, change to HDMI 4", "Alexa, turn off the TV."
To be perfectly honest, I have an Android TV as my main TV, and I bought a cheap Vizio 4k for the living room, and I ended up using it more than my good TV. The Vizio interface is hot garbage, so I bought a fire cube on Black Friday. I never had a stick, so I don't know all of the differences, but the Fire Cube made my TV infinitely more usable.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
