Paper is so smart,

paper weighs nothing

paper does not run out of battery,

paper requires no (forgotten) passwords,

paper does not have auto-off after x seconds,

paper can be easily transferred,

paper does not require wifi.

And Thai officials love paper they can stamp.

I thought the DTV visa was for 5 years. Have they made a mistake?

I am still unsure as to what you have to do after 180 days is up to get a re-issue. Do you have to present all the paperwork, proof of funds, evidence of current training contract ( e.g. Thai Boxing).again.?

That maybe the case if you extend via an immigration office. Easiest is just leave and enter again get 180 days stamped with no questioning.
