    not really though. it is more like this, simplified:

    yt-dlp URL --output /path/with/all/the/funky/patameters.%(ext) --all-the-worlds-parameters-for-good-format-quality-subs-whateverelse
    

    yes if you want to download a single video or two, the basic command works somewhat, but not usable if you want to download lots of videos from multiple channels

      You’re making up cases that don’t need to exist. The basic command and its defaults works fine. It can download every video from every channel. Don’t need anything else.
