How these are built: the flagship query is run through YouTube search (US), the top 5 results are analysed (Shorts are left out; metadata, description chapters, transcripts, comments), and a short commentary is written and reviewed against that snapshot. Five videos for one query are evidence about that query, never a claim about the whole niche.
