Sure. If you have an Apple TV 4K enrolled in MDM (presumably using DEP),
and then push down a profile for single-app mode (say for your digital
signage app), and then the Apple TV 4K loses connectivity with the MDM
(it can happen in various ways, but let's say someone deleted it from
the MDM by accident), then the Apple TV 4K will be stuck in single-app
mode forever.

There is no way to restore it to default config using Apple Configurator
like you can with previous models, since they removed the USB port. The
only solution is to return it to Apple for a replacement under warranty.

I'm not aware of any blog posts about it, this comes from the #apple-tv
channel on the MacAdmins Slack https://macadmins.herokuapp.com/
