I think I would have suggested having this take a Page& argument rather than having the caller dig out the boolean and the URL.

I think this would read better without the local variable. Maybe even just a one-liner:

    return needsQuirks && equalLettersIgnoringASCIICase(url.host(), "www.netflix.com");

This could be a (host isEqualIgnoringCase "netflix.com" || host hasPrefixIgnoringCase ".netflix.com") if you don't want to depend on Netflix's redirect.

Hi Beth. What we ended up landing didn’t match Tim’s suggestion, and will return false if Netflix ever uses "netflix.com"; might want to return and clean that up either by removing the "www.netflix.com" check (which is redundant) or changing it to "netflix.com" (taking Tim’s suggestion more literally).
