Well, almost a year after the first posts on this topic, I noticed in the last couple of days that when I hit the regular back button on my Roku once, it now backs up just a couple of seconds and automatically replays. It's enough to replay the last line of dialog, which for me is perfect. Ten seconds is way too long, because it's usually just something in the last comment that I missed.
I had quit using the instant replay button because--Duh!--it had quit doing instant replays. But I tried it again, and now it does the same thing as the back button: automatically replays just a couple of seconds. In other words, the instant replay button and the regular back button still work exactly the same, but now they are both doing something I like much better. It's worked this way for at least two days now.
I can still go back multiple frames if I want to, by hitting the back button more than once.
I am now afraid that by posting this, I will have angered the Netflix gods of vengeance, and they will strike my equipment and break any instant-replay function again. But I wanted to let y'all know.
