Netflix "Change Plan" screen review

I am an interaction design student and learning to evaluate UI designs with an new perspective with this education.

When I looked at this screen I started wondering why is the screen designed like this and not anything else? I mean there are various ways this could have been designed? Why is the "tick mark" present at the left? Why not higlight the selected row with a different color? Why is the information in each row organized in 3 columns with the plan presented in a small rectangle at the left instead of keeping it center of the row. Why the color choice of Black, Gray and White?

As an UX designer, how would you rationalize or make these decisions? Why was this design picked instead of other designs?
