The difference in obfuscation of YouTube's js vs obfuscation in a game is that with YouTube the actual functionality is very limited, in the end you just want a video stream.

I agree that statistical signals will clearly tell apart ad-blocking and ad-victim users. Tbh I never use Youtube logged in, and I think it would be a very bad thing for both sides of this if they ever required login.
