For YouTube, I've found NewPipe (and probably others) offers a much better experience than YouTube in the web.

The real reason I want PWAs to be a thing is because I don't want to always use iOS and Android, and PWAs allow me to use an alternative. I really want to use a Linux phone like Pinephone, and PWAs will be a big part of that transition. PWAs are the only truly cross-platform development option, so they offer value to web devs as well as users.
