✅ Henrixs's revision pass (17 Jul) - all applied.
"All the reasons are numbered" - reason 4 was the only one missing its badge; it now has one, so all 7 are numbered.
1:18 / 2:54 / 3:47 / 6:21 - captions superimposed on the channel - fixed everywhere. A channel screenshot now owns its frame: the slide plays clean (one caption BELOW the image, never on it), then it cuts away and the labels get their own frame. Written into the studio's doctrine as a permanent rule.
5:09 - "the 3AM channel... there is no such thing, correct the voiceover" - correct, it doesn't exist (@Lab3AM = a 119-sub music producer, @3AMLab = empty). The voiceover is re-recorded: the channel name and the 6.8M figure are gone, the lumpy/one-winner principle is unchanged. Nothing was ever fabricated on screen.

Verified on screen (everything else is real)

Jack Explains Money (@JackExplainsMoneyUS) - real channel, 68.3K subs. NOTE: the script says the video did 326K views; it is now at 438K (it grew since the script was written), so the screen shows the higher real number.
Myth Explainer (@Myth-Explainer) - "Every Divine Punishment Explained in 20 Minutes" = 262,432 views, matches the script exactly.
RoboNuggets (@RoboNuggets) - 157K subs, matches exactly; the skool.com/robonuggets community link is visible in the shot. Shown only as the community-layer example - never framed as faceless (he's a face/tech creator).
Professor Historian (@TheHistorianProfessor) - "Every Drug Used in Ancient Civilizations" = 585,951 views, matches the script exactly.
Flippa - the real YouTube marketplace page for the sellable-asset payoff. Tim Danilov (@timdanilovhi) credited for niche bending.

The 7 reasons

1 - You chase subs, not money (views x RPM is the paycheck)
2 - The wrong audience is draining you (country + ad categories)
3 - Your videos are too short (mid-roll slots stack up)
4 - You only know ads (4 layers: ads / affiliate / brand / your own product)
5 - You quit right before the one winner
6 - You blend in (bend, don't copy)
7 - You don't own your audience (email + the sellable asset)

Structure: the 7-step map is grey in the intro and lights up in the recap; the "watch the middle" tease in the intro pays off at the layers section. Earnings disclaimer is the final beat, after the CTA. Length note: the doc estimated ~10 min / a 9-minute floor - at the Money Groot delivery speed this lands at 8:28 (clears the 8:05 mid-roll threshold, but not 9 min).
