Why does Youtube need to know the battery level?
Google of all companies has simulators (probably down to the cycle level on their own phones) and will know exactly how much processing power they're using. There's no reason for them to know the battery level for performance metrics. I fail to see it as benign, even if the stated reason is notionally benign.
