I spent about 4 years creating educational videos and posts, and it's not irrelevant: it takes a ton of time, especially writing and editing, to make a video short and dense in information. That said, I created videos because I could charge way more for them — even if it for myself, I would rather have the content in the written/illustrated form.

Maybe the problem today is the lack of financial incentives to create good, but short written content?

From the point of view of the consumer, “short content” has a big problem: a short summary from a 250-page non-fiction book rarely creates a profound effect on the person reading it. I'm not surely why, but my guess is, without the anecdotes and examples, the hero journey, and the more complex narrative, we don't take the content as seriously and even approachable for ourselves.
