That's not a foregone conclusion! Google has a great platform but has shown weakness in a lot of areas (UI, fragmentation, infighting with Chrome OS, market, etc.) in pushing it. Some of these are being addressed now, some not.
Google's ChromeOS-Android waffle cost them a huge lead in tablets. If they do the same in the TV domain and let Apple dominate it with their upcoming new Apple TV things would not look well.
