The article mentions the ''enormous, easy-to-press-by-accident Netflix button" on the Shield TV remote, and I agree with the major annoyance of it. With a SofaBaton remote and some button reassignments using the Button Mapper app, everything is just right now. The original remote went into storage, and pairing a Bluetooth mouse and keyboard was easy. Debloating via ADB has been successful based on some great tips at XDA, and adding the NeoStore app gives access to F-Droid and other repositories.

Does it require a moment to reconnect to Bluetooth after it falls asleep? Or does that issue no longer exist?

I'll have to say no. I've never noticed any such delay, but I'll watch for it.
