Although the physical screen size of a TV attached to a Google TV device appears to be quite large, the viewing distance is also much larger than that for a mobile device. The apparent size of the Google TV screen turns out to be only slightly different from a mobile phone's screen. The large setting ensures that Android does not display a UI that is too spread out and too small to see.
To understand the effective size of the screen more clearly, sit ten feet away from a Google TV screen, hold up an Android mobile phone at a normal viewing distance, and compare the sizes. You'll see that the two apparent sizes are very close to each other.
