This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Why care? In a second I'll leave this video and never think of it again. The key point is conveyed, and we are all done.
Because someone went out of their way to mutilate a video for no reason, so I'm gonna go out of my way to make it right. Just because you can't be bothered to care doesn't mean everyone else is just like you.
This isn't a "significant" video. By any standard. Digest the information and move on. Doing otherwise is fist fighting the waves on the beach.
Most importantly, the purpose and message of the video is conveyed.
Thankfully, you don't get to decide what other people consider "significant". I'll spend my time how I want, thanks.
Literally name any metric or qualifier of objective nature.
Lol, no. You don't get to debate me into not valuing something. Deal with it.
You deal. You're the one having a this about a fully informative short clip.
You clearly only have subjective value positions to argue from, and can't meaningfully refute my points.
There's no problem enjoying content the way you do. There's a problem getting angry about a video that literally does it's job
Nah.
Glad we tidied this up. Resume the video!!
Wouldn’t it be great to have it dynamic based on device?
Anyway, everyone’ll have to get off our lawn.
For the average world netizen…
…OP’s is the desirable format.
Here I am on my phone. I do not desire this format. And nothing you have posted suggests that anyone wants this format.
All it shows is device, not preference.
Anytime something is recorded wide screen my wish is that it remains in that format, regardless of platform I am on.
If I'm on my phone it takes less than half a second to rotate my screen and view as intended, on my desktop I can't do that.
Also in this case quite a bit of the original was lost, seeing the YouTube version is much better.
Diagonal video is obviously the superior format:
Why stop at video!
You don't understand the data. That data has nothing to do with what video format people prefer.
