So they just save the lower resolution YouTube audio into FLAC?

No. Very much no. I wonder where he found that.

But I did find a few that clearly might have been uploaded to Deezer as 320K MP3s with their 20.5kHz cut-off, but based on replies on Reddit, it is sometimes just mastered that way, "Often for dumb reasons". However, sometimes it shows FLAC download unavailable for certain few songs, so maybe it really was just different mastering in those cases.
