Huh, why should “continue watching” be the first row?

If I don’t care enough to finish a movie I may as well start a new one. At the very least it’s not a clear choice.

Well, of it was user-centred then "because that use scrolls to 'continue watching' more often than not".

Why not let users choose? Because, sadly, it's about money and not about users.

On the flip side, the only reason I don't finish a movie or TV show is because I run out of time. Either it's time for bed, time to go, or I fell asleep. In all 3 cases I'm still interested in the movie; it's why I put it on in the first place!

Binge watching TV series. The easiest signal that you don’t want to continue watching a movie would be to thumbs down it.
