That context is exactly why Karl's content is what it is, it's the same reason so many YouTubers use click bait titles and stupid thumbnails - it gets more hits and more hits is more money.
If it takes you a week or more of your time to make a single video, of course you're going to want as big a return from the video as possible. And if the choice is 3x the return for the same effort then it's a complete no brainer.
