Why does Roon Radio favor streaming?

Right, this is the point. Roon will play a streaming file when I know I have that track in my library, in a hi res or other version I have chosen. It is not a huge deal if the intention is “radio listening” in a sense but I don’t really understand why Roon wouldn’t select the version I have designated as primary.

I also don’t love it when Roon selects the track from a “best of” compilation instead of the track from the album that is primary, but maybe that logic is harder to defeat. Just sometimes the best-of compilation version is edited, shortened, etc.
