If you are strictly watching TV and movies, those differences mean nothing. You'll never utilize them. The A1, despite being HDMI 2.0, supports eARC so you're maintaining the same compatibility regarding passing lossless audio. The only meaningful difference here that I'm aware of is that the C1 gets a little bit brighter, which is going to make for better viewing in bright rooms and slightly punchier HDR. Given that the A1 will still look outstanding, I'm not sure the extra $400 just for slightly better HDR is worth it. If you are viewing in a bright room, you may find the C1 the better buy, but otherwise, if you aren't a gamer, I would not hesitate to get the A1 at this price.

Just to add, the idea of "future proofing" any sort of technology is a great way to spend too much money. At some point in the not too distant future, 8k/120FPS or scratch n' sniff TVs or whatever will require a new HDMI standard.

"The LG A1 OLED and the LG C1 OLED deliver very similar picture quality but differ in the extra features available. The C1 is a better gaming TV, with four HDMI 2.1 ports, support for variable refresh rate technology (VRR), and a 120Hz refresh rate. For movie lovers, the C1 is also a slightly better choice, as it can remove judder from any source, and it has an optional Black Frame Insertion feature to help reduce persistence blur".

Why the Allstate warranty?
Year 1: manufacturer warranty
Year 2: Costco's in-house Concierge service
Years 3 to 5: Allstate Extended Warranty.
The exceptions are some TVs where. the manufacturer provides three years of manufacturer warranty.
