I imagine it (on average) helps more than watching someone stream playing a videogame would, so if one gets the benefit of enjoyment in the same way from both, in roughly the same degree, then even a small benefit towards learning could be enough to tip the scales.

But that only applies if one is the sort of person that would get said enjoyment out of it.

In the general case, where one doesn’t get that, idk.
