The question is how to do the switch. My Sony TV remote has an "input" button that allows me to switch inputs, but the Roku set up disabled the Sony remote, and the Roku remote does not have such a f...

Well I just went by what the OP said, and they have a different brand of TV, so I’m not so sure that anything your TV does applies. In your case, you might want to consider disabling CEC in your TV as it seems kind of messed up from your description.
I would hope no TV maker would be dumb enough to reassign their input select function to be something other than selecting inputs, because input selection is such as fundamental feature of a TV.
I have a Samsung too, and I originally had CEC enabled, and introducing a Roku didn’t do anything to its remote. I just say that to point out that not even all Samsung TVs have that feature/bug.
As I mentioned, I have Roku players connected to Samsung, LG and Vizio TVs. None of them has altered the remote buttons on any of the TV remotes. And I have CEC enabled on all my Rokus and TVs.

No, it's not. The OP has a Sony TV, but you claim it's a problem with Samsung TVs. I don't have any Sony TVs, but I've had a Roku connected to different Samsung TVs for over 10 years and never encountered this issue. The oldest TV is now ten years old, while the newest one is less than 6 months. Completely relevant. And if there was such an issue with other TV brands, my experience with LG and Vizio would indicate otherwise.
My newest Samsung TV has an option when I press the Input button to configure Universal Remote Settings, but I have never configured or used that function. CEC has not done so automatically.
