All of the people saying "I'd rather wait five seconds than watch an ad" seem to be optimistic that it will continue to be 5 seconds and YouTube won't keep upping it.
But they can't extend it longer than the shortest ads, since then it'll affect users after they watch ads too, which kinda defeats the point
Exactly, so this still guarantees a better experience than ad viewers because you will always have the minimum ad length
That's not a problem. Just put in longer ads. Or multiple ads in a row.
They aleady do that
