The merging of YouTube and Google identities was an absolute nightmare. I was managing a site that used, I believe it was called "Google Apps for Your Domain" at the time, the predecessor to Google Workspace.

Ultimately we disabled YouTube in the Google admin panel for the organization, and advised the users to start sharing an unrelated Gmail account to manage the org's YouTube page.

I can't imagine un-merging the service logins to go any better.
