I’m required to click in order to find out any of the measures since they’re not in the title of the video or in the post description. Before watching, I have no idea whether they’ll be snake oil.

Clickbait implies a misleading, or incorrect title.

If you want a written resource, I'm sure you can find one.

I've curated what I put in the interesting area to be things I found interesting of high value.

Okay, I was a bit harsh, and “clickbait” is inaccurate. I’m sorry.

Still seems like the measures could be revealed in the title or post description.

5:13 he gives the TL;DR - metabolic health. It wasn't even that far into the video my guy.

Proposed new video title:
“How metabolic health can be measured at home to Predict a Heart Attack - Dr. Brewer”

That would be sufficient to know if the video is worth a click.

5 minute is a long time. The effort I am willing to put into listening is proportional to the amount of care the creator took when editing to respecting the listener's time.

If someone approaches me in a way that signals they obviously and blatantly do not value my time, why would I give them any of it?
