Huh.

Do you know of any videos that go into more depth? (My level is the "PBS Space Time" and Sabine Hossenfelder videos as I don't do this professionally).

No, this is upper level undergrad/introductory graduate material. Popsci is going to be worse than useless.
Fair enough. I'm definitely not at that level yet, and there's a good chance I'll never find time to reach it.
