That's assuming none of that video is something that Twitch is storing for any other reason (i.e., other users have highlights of the same thing, or they would store the videos internally for some reason).

It's possible the actual additional storage requirements for that specific user are minuscule, since we don't know what data they are/aren't archiving themselves, if they're doing any deduplicating, etc.
