You're basically making the argument for why this should be a user preference.
Do I want the current app I'm using to influence the result of a voice command or not.
Unfortunately the line between voice commands and voice search is often fuzzy. Lines like this:
> Roku alleges Google has asked it to favor YouTube music results from voice commands made on the Roku remote while the YouTube app is open
make it unclear if it's talking about a search or a command.
Ideally Roku would implement a more fine grained API where a user can set permissions/preferences on an app by app basis, similar to Android and iOS permissions APIs and especially how notifications are handled.
Either way if Roku's allegations definitely don't paint Google in a good light here. It just seems like there could be more to this story.
