> Do you blame a library card catalog for listing by subject, title, or chronology?

I would if someone reordered them based on some subjective "engagement" metric.

The card catalog is not a recommendation engine. YouTube's recommendations are... literally a recommendation engine. I think platforms should be legally liable for the things they promote via subjective choices. Pity the law isn't set up that way.
