Hey mate, Thermal is the ONLY way to go. There are lots of people on this forum that will insist that you only need a cheapy. It is up to you on this one. The general "internet", as you have found, is not the place for real advice. My comments are generally not commonly agreed with here. Just be aware that once you have spent your money it is gone, so when you realize you need better it is too late. You start again and end up paying a lot more.
Yes I am of the opinion that a thermal scope is a tool and I am of the belief that ONY the best tools are worth using. Unfortunately it IS expensive.
There is a lot to learn re the questions you have asked!
