Android tv's arent that old. 10 years max. 5 years since it's affordable for most people. Is it unreasonable to own a 5 year old non-smart tv? I think not. I think it's weird that so many people assume everyone owns a smart tv.
In what scenario would you need to type in a password on a non-smart TV though? Parental lock?
You're not wrong but in what context would you be putting in passwords on a non-smart device
Also it's not just smart TVs. You can hook up streaming sticks and boxes and game consoles to anything with an HDMI port
