The honest answer was in the post they were originally replying to.
Youtube isn't an existential need.
Ad's or bust isn't a real dichotomy.
Here's another honest suggestion, drop ~~free~~ ad supported Youtube as a product and go full premium.
It'd significantly reduce infrastructure costs and they'd be able to fund it with subscription monies.
