I think that it's more of a type of content issue rather than the method of learning.

Think online university lecture vs a random dude doing crazy experiments on YouTube

Sure, the lecture covers more content and does it in a more comprehensive way, but you will probably still learn some stuff from the crazy YouTube dude

Yeah, partially. There is amazing content out there (Jenny explaining relational algebra in YouTube shout out!).

But I also discovered that my brain has a limit for how much information I can process in that way. So blended works better for me... But I will never fault anyone for not being able to make online education work for them.
