I have not mentioned the thumbnail, only the title.
I would argue that this sort of clickbait is not really intended for person 1. A bit for person 2 but probably most for person 3, the guy looking at YouTube’s recommendation algorithm. The title purposefully omits information to draw the reader in.
Again, I’m making no arguments about this being a bad or immoral thing to do, I’m simply saying that is a classic clickbait tactic. It’s his job to draw in viewers and that’s what he’s doing.
Your “3” is literally just the result of 1 and 2. If you watch a single video by The Charismatic Voice, your entire front page is going to be every single “vocal instructor reacts” video on Youtube in five different languages. And if you look up how to replace a gasket in your dishwasher then you are going to see a LOT of right wing idiots talking about why they hate chinese tools.
