I suspect they are trying to provide a way for folks to 'channel surf'. I think there is a common complaint with streaming services in that sometimes folks sit down without knowing in advance what they plan to watch and the choice is overwhelming and they eventually choose to watch nothing. In the old days you'd just surf channels and land on something and often end up roped in, and I suspect data shows that is missing.
