I finally got a chance to take a picture of the behavior I am talking
about.. I played with throttling the TV's IP address while I was streaming
a 4K program. The first burst is the stream starting, and you can see it as
it continues. Above 25-30mbit you get to the point where the connection
bursts data in instead of sustained usage with a TV attempting to stream in
4K. This trend is fairly consistent from the view of the Mikrotik.

My connection is the DOCSIS 3.1 Gigabit offering.

Netflix instantly adjusted to whatever speed was available as soon as I
changed the queue in the mikrotik.. using a simple queue / type:
default-small. This was looking at the WAN facing port of my mikrotik CHR
VM. I was shaping the TV's local address.
