Netflix doesn't support Linux or Chrome.  Calls to tech support render a
non-technical response
from Netflix and suggest using Windows or Mac.  Am I missing something
or should Moonlight 
work for this?

yes. I belong to this thing called Mypoint/bonusmail. Every so often then send 
out an email with coupons that you can print/redeem.. Well guess what, they 
don't support Linux, so I can't print any coupons.
