I agree, essentially. networkmanager seems a no go to me because of its
indentation with systemd (?); wicd is somehow better but far from
ideal, imho.

I'd like to encourage you to try out, may be just for a moment, ceni
(which thanks to ozi is in our repositories now). Unfortunately it
relays on ifupdown (therefore strictly debian/devuan). You'd need to
use a machine of your wife ;) - but: do it. I think it's a great and
very simple tool.

Cheers.
