Netflix on a recent android mobile showed that the formats supported for hardware decoding are h264 and VP9. So, thought the mobile doesn't have h265 h/w. But then installed mpv from fdroid and played h265 video and mpv said it's using h/w decoding. So for some reason, Netflix chose not to use h265.
