I am a youtube lover, I know YouTube is also a medium to upload for free. Users can load, watch and share video clips for free, YouTube is also perfect for those of us who want to find information without having to read articles, Generally the videos on YouTube are clip video clips, TV shows, movies and videos made by its own users . And keep in mind, the videos displayed are generally only to be viewed through the browser, not to be downloaded and viewed offline.

I completely disagree with your conclusion. Videos on YouTube include hours-long presentations of e.g. vortex mathematics which is basically required to view multiple times in order to best understand it. Using bandwidth downloading it multiple times (e.g., streaming) seems wasteful.
Downloading it a single time and watching it multiple times, at one's leisure, whether the website is up, or whether one's even connected to the internet, is a valid use case. Also using VLC you can control the speed with the "[" and "]" keys.
And, as I'm recovering from multiple concussions, I tend to forget most of what I've seen or read. So, being able to download videos so I can watch them again, and sort them into folders so as to assist in my recall, is urgently necessary (and hopefully won't be, at some point in the future).
