I'd put shield ahead of consoles. It's way quicker to start than consoles, uses less standby power (I guess), and the included remote and interface make it easier for "normal" people to use.
Thanks to HDMI-CEC you can just use the regular tv remote to control a console.
Which kinda solves one problem, but you think a non-tech-savvy person will remember not to press the Netflix button on the TV remote that gives them the crappy TV app? For a gamer/etc. that knows what button a TV remote is going to correspond to "o" in the on screen UI, sure. Useful info for those that didn't know!
The PS5 doesn’t show console controls. The UI is like a regular TV interface. But yes they must remember to not use the wrong app.
