The real cost of 'we'll just find something'
Streaming menus are built to keep you browsing, not to help you decide quickly — which is part of why 'movie night' so often turns into thirty minutes of scrolling before anyone actually presses play. Having everyone commit to one pick up front, then spinning, shortcuts that entirely.
It also removes the social friction of one person's pick always winning by default because they suggested it first or loudest — every title on the wheel gets an equal shot, unless someone's genuinely fine losing the option to something they suggested twice.
