It was like it was on there by accident.
As mentioned you would have thought the week of A Grand Tour would have been prime time to launch it but with how slow Netflix, BBC and just in general the TiVo has gone you can't blame Amazon if they have said we don't want to be associated with that.

The alpha test known issues referenced the Amazon Prime app but the group testing the latest software on the current platform weren't asked to test it....even though it was there in the apps. The alpha test known issues also referenced 4k issues so I'm assuming that was perhaps related to V6 testing.
If you were also involved in the latest testing exercise you'll probably agree that it wasn't exactly smooth running and an app accidentally making it out to the wrong platform isn't a surprise.
