Could you elaborate on why you think Pi 4 is "overpowered" for Kodi?

From what I've seen, there are still some kinks playing 4K HEVC videos. So hopefully, when software/firmware/etc. catches up, it should be "just powerful enough" for a Kodi box, all because of hardware decode.

Barely handling 4K does not scream "overpowered for a media center" to me.

Ok, I didn't think about 4k videos, or software codecs.
