To their defense - their catalog in some countries (like mine) is so small that I was able to just ... browse through the whole offer in 10 minutes.
I've managed to binge-watch everything I liked in two months (while working full time remotely) and cancel Prime.
With such a small catalog suggestions will mostly be wrong, as there isn't enough content to fill the whole suggestions tab :)

Given that the former is a major engineering project, while the latter is a junior-level interview question, one has to assume they're trying to confuse their users on purpose.
