Even though I would like to casually watch a video on Binance but I am going to pass on that channel.

That channel is defined by red backgrounds, down arrows and fire. I firmly believe that one should be open to every opinion as long as they have a built a good framework aka BS detector. I feel like this video is not going to be a casual watch for me and I am definitely not invested in Binance that much to fact check everything presented on that video.

I watched maybe a third of the video. It was truly awful.

I think the overall conclusion is right -- that the Mazars report does not show Binance is sound -- but, wow, what an awful way to deliver it.

That is an unfortunate side effect of the way YT is running its feed system and ad revenue sharing. A good amount of YT vid thumbnails have turned into clickbait.
I tend to agree with you, but i'm also sympathetic to the youtubers trying to maximize their engagement since this style appears to be what does it
