Has Roku has permanently removed the "Continue Watching" option from all Roku devices?

What to Watch - Continue Watching. I recently chatted with someone at Roku about not seeing the "Continue Watching" option located anywhere on my device. They stated that this option has been removed, and, in the future, it may or may not return as an option. Why would the Roku executives and/or developers have considered this as a non-essential option? Yes, I fully understand that each individual app/channel has its own associated "Continue Watching" option. Is this a way for Roku to create and generate more Ad revenue space and money for the Roku Executives and shareholders and like the saying goes You can't please everyone, so you might as well please yourself. Thanks, Roku, for continuously changing my device settings and/or options as you choose.

Re: Has Roku has permanently removed the "Continue Watching" option from all Roku devices?

@ThisishT 

I am still seeing it under "What to Watch" (first row) from the left side Home Screen menu.

Settings/Home Screen/What to Watch [Show]

Also still seeing Continue Watching under the Roku Channel channel/app.

Some users reported having a Save List and a Continue Watching selection directly on the Home Screen (as individual Menu items).  I believe those may have been a 'Test Feature' from Roku as all users did not have that option.  Those seem to have began being removed a couple of months ago from some users' devices.
