I am not sure how to interpret "no more influencers" as anything but the primary upside.

Mostly that's a joke, but to be clear I do acknowledge that the same model that supports 'influencers' which I don't watch, also support creators that I do watch. On the other hand, most of the creators I care about already don't rely on ads, but accept donations via Patreon or equivalent, so maybe it wouldn't change anything after all!
