Does the Nvidea Shield TV come with this Google controlled "Android TV Home" as the home screen / launcher?

Seems like a miss on Nvidea's part to let someone else control the default experience, if so.

Yes, it is required by Google for Android TV devices.

Ah, okay. That does make for a confusing consumer experience. I would guess most non-tech users would assume this is something Nvidea can control.

Edit: You can see some complaints flowing in on Nvidea's forum: https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/geforce/forums/shield-tv/9/
