All very good points. The Ouya is indeed an Android console, through and through. It doesn't take much digging into the settings area to see stock Jelly Bean UI. Like, right down to the "shutting down" popup/animation. It does have a touch pad on the controller, but I've never once seen a reason to use it (yet). A "nice to have", though. Despite the recent negative buzz, I've been pretty happy with my Ouya so far. It's a $99 console, people. Some of the games have hinted as some real innovative gameplay and it can emulate any classic game console you can imagine. Next up is getting XBMC running on there, it's supposedly pretty far along. It does suffer from typical Android issues, the most notable being the tendency to slow way down for a second or so, then speedily "catch up" to input that was deferred. If you've scrolled an Android phone, you've probably seen that behavior. It's annoying in gaming. I hope they can fix this.
