Most people don't want an extra box or dongle? Everyone likes devices you can just plug in, push some remote buttons, and you're done. Even when the set top box works, something inevitably goes awry, such as audio issues non-HDMI sound output, or not seeing video because the soundbar isn't connected to the box or dongle, and so on and so on. Remember those households with the blinking 12 on the VCR? Yeah, folks just want to watch their movies, they don't need to know how this stuff works, even the basics. I know too many people who watch movies on Netflix on an iPad because it's easier to do that than to configure their smart projector every time. We really haven't made technology that much easier to use yet, but it's getting closer, maybe.
