What are your stances regarding the "lengthening" of content?
Some content creators include things like open loops, preambles, etc. to hold viewer's attention. While some may go with this flow (myself included), others I've seen regard this as verbose, time-wasting, manipulative, and whatever epithets they call it. I've seen so many YouTube comments that goes something like "the video starts at 46:03", "the content you're looking for is at 7:00". Some even had the audacity to say "the rest are a bunch of gobbledygook" (and I'm being polite there), and even an entire essay to the creator to stop overwriting and go straight to the point.

Depends on if what's lengthening the content is actual content. I loathe to the limit of my surroundings tangents that go nowhere. You can pull off some ridiculously outlandish tangents if you make them actually relevant, but don't just start talking about the history of programming languages in your Befunge-98 video unless you can convince me that Plankalkül influenced the fingerprint feature or whatever.
The rest honestly as long as it's not too much it's their content, if you don't like don't watch
