My TV and computer monitor are deny-listed on my router, and I'm angry that I even have to do that.
Your monitor is "smart"?
Yes, tragically. Don't buy a Samsung Odyssey monitor like I did. It takes 7 button presses to change the input and there's a Disney+, Netflix, and Prime Video dedicated buttons on the remote.
I'm looking to "down"-grade ASAP.
Why are they even connected to your router in the first place?
Not OP but, my TV has a local api. I connected it to my network so I can control it via home assistant. That can be one reason why. Of course, its also on a VLAN that has no access to the WAN.
firmware updates, then I forget the network on the device and then denylist the MAC address
