And in return, YouTube serves video and pays creators.

pays creators

Not enough. Otherwise creators would not need to include their own ads which Premium users can’t hide.

Premium users can jump ahead to "the next part of the video most users fast forward to", which are sponsored segments most of the time

Even if it was enough, they would not leave money on the table.

Which is still bullshit, Youtube Premium payers should not have to sit through that crap. Pirates with sponsor block have a better experience than paying suckers

It's not possible to pay enough to overcome human greed.
