I’m pretty sure you could just have it stop recording when it got full. There is in any case a big difference between auto delete to make space and deleting on a timer base regardless of what the user wants or the space involved. My family had series we kept for years on it and would rewatch whenever.
Don’t know what defendable about this. Its clearly skeevy, weird thing to bootlick about.
My TiVo was the “upgraded” internal storage of 500GB or something back in the day.
• Per show, select if you wanted to keep forever, or delete when drive was full
• Drive settings allowed for “delete marked files when full” or “stop recording when full”.
Seemed as those “choices” where easier programed back then when basic logic was implimented.

The 30-second skip button was also gold.
