For anyone worried, we arrived into BKK last night. Had a female immigration officer who was lovely and friendly. Showed her the printed pdfs and she waved us through with no further questions. Family of four, kids also have DTV. No questions about funds or work etc. Applied for DTV under workation pathway.
Answer summary

They mentioned that a friendly female immigration officer processed their family's entry without asking additional questions about finances or employment, as they had the necessary documentation printed out.

Thank you for your helpful report 👍

It's good you had the DTV visa PRINTED OUT to show the Thai Immigration Officer.
