We are talking about killing traditional TV. None of this competes with traditional TV. The thing that is killing traditional TV is netflix and the like. Its not even the case that Tv series start on youtube and graduate to TV/netflix. The personalities do, but I'm struggling for a show that has. Not even "zoella" has managed it. the most she's managed is an advert.

Of course this replaces traditional TV. The time I spend watching TableTop I might have spend watching a traditional game show a decade ago. I talk with other people about what happened in the latest episodes. Those shows don't fill a vacuum - they replace something else. And that something is a certain part of traditional TV. You are right that content produced for Youtube does not in general replace scripted drama/comedy. But that is only a tiny part of traditional TV.
