I'm totally fine with tooltips on hover. In fact, quite often they should appear quicker. And sometimes they don't appear at all when I really want them to. No idea what's going on with that.
But yeah, hover is just for info about the thing you're about to click, not pretending I've already clicked it when I haven't.
The stupid thing about Youtube is that sometimes a video starts playing on hover, in the thumbnail and without sound, and then I actually do click it because indeed it is something I want to watch, and then I miss the first couple of seconds because it's already shown those, with the sound off. It's just the most bizarrely stupid UI decision I can think of.
