YouTube recently started showing a graph highlighting what sections of the video are watched more (when seeking with the cursor), so I assume they actually give creators proper metrics about this, and it could hurt revenue if sponsors ask to know the difference in watch time between their segment and the rest of the video

Yea - if you're manually skipping sponsored segments this is actually hilariously useful since when seeking through the video there will be a big spike at the end of every sponsored segment from all the sponsor block users.
