I am seriously considering creating a dropship company focused exclusively on buying and selling electronic components that are sold for parts and people can assemble them at home, Ikea-style.

I would start with selling 50" and 65" inch "dumb" TVs. Just the panel, a nice enclosure and a board with an IR receiver, TV tuner and HDMI outputs. BYO top box and Soundbar. I wonder how fast it would take to get 10000 orders.

I would love to buy a TV with a great image quality, a bunch of ports, image tweaking and nothing else. No wifi, no cellular, no internet, no speakers.

Honestly? Doesn’t even need a remote provided CEC works fine with my Apple TV.

How would you tweak the image via CEC over the Apple TV?

Ideally you do not need to tweak the image. All I need is a calibrated display, the rest is handled by my computer producing the input.

Do you watch TV through a computer? But also, how does that make the Apple TV able to tweak the image?
