iCloud Photo Support For Apple TV

Why can't you see your entire iCloud Photo Library on the new Apple TV?
The newest generation Apple TV has the same icon as the Photos App that runs on iOS and OS X, but it's nothing at all like the Photos App on the Mac, iPhone or iPad. I can understand why it doesn't fully support things like photo enhancing, but it should at least give you full access to your entire iCloud Photo Library.
Right now, I've got nearly 20,000 photos in my iCloud Photos Library, but the Apple TV Photos App just shows the latest photos, and it really doesn't have any features to search the library.
Since the newest generation Apple TV has just about the same storage capacity as most iPhones (up to 64 GB), it should have plenty of room to keep thumbnails of your entire photo library, just like the iPhone.
A TV is the perfect platform for showing off your photos and home videos.
I was excited to see the Apple Photos icon when they first introduced it, but was let down when I discovered that in spite of the icon, it has very little in common with the Photos Apps on the iPad, iPhone and Mac.
