Apparently this is also the only way to recover a youtube playlist if you accidentally click delete instead of edit.

at least after spending a half hour researching how to recover one - everyone says find the url, go to the internet archive and hope.

Youtube has terrible ux for edit playlist (one desktop anyway)

Luckliy I had a google takeout from not too long ago, and I have been using the YT music much less, so the loss was not as devastating.
