This is just one of many aspects where Google shows that it doesn't really care about the UX. They only care about your data.
I can think of a few other examples off the top of my head where their services could be improved easily but no one seems to care.
Like for example the youtube autoplay algorithm, which is often useless. Here's a crazy idea Youtube, why not check which other videos are in the recent queue and play content based on all of them? Instead of just the last one.
Usually when Autoplay takes over I've already queued up a few videos on my own, I've literally spoon fed them.
The YT Music UI is pretty bad too but that's a new product so it might improve. As a long time Google play music user I complacently migrated my playlists over and decided to give YT Music a go.
First week I only use it to play my Electro Work playlist, basically EDM and Psy/Goa.
Every time I start the app I begin at the Home screen with their recommendations to me, and not one single time do they recommend anything from or related to that playlist.
And every single time I browse away from the Home screen and start that same playlist.
The recommendations of YT Music seem to be based on my YT history, not my MUSIC history.
