One benefit of a separate device, especially a small one like a Roku or Firestick, is you can take it on holiday with you to access all your services while away (assuming your destination has a TV with HDMI).

I would be terrified of leaving such a device every time I go somewhere, considering the ports are invariably behind the screen.

Tether it to something you can't forget like your bag.
