Why would they even archive it? They don’t have to pay for hosting on YouTube, so those videos at this point are a cost free revenue stream.

- Reubachi 3y agoBecause youtube DOES charge them via adsense, and TOS can change at any moment. Eventually, that TOS can change and they can delist old content, reneg on ad terms, force new editing/censoring on old videos etc. All within their right as platform holder. Sort of like saying "I haven't been in an accident. Why would I need insurance?"
