> Heavily edited to remove pauses so that the whole video sounds like one long sentence.

I appreciate the brevity. I hate videos that are longer than necessary. I really hate the videos that are about 10 minutes long (the advertising sweet spot), containing content that could have been delivered in 30-45 seconds without all of the "like", "subscribe", how they're feeling that day, etc.

We're talking about different things.

Yes, there is fluff content that isn't necessary and can be cut out to make the video (in some cases, much) shorter.

What I'm talking about is the video equivalent to "wall of text" -- talking with zero pauses (because all pauses have been edited out).
