I'd love to see it exceed his expectations, but I think his table in the middle covers the "Wildly Optimistic" contingency well enough that we will struggle to beat it.

Look I am definitely... Well, not guilty... Let's say a keen advocate of not having crazy amounts of advertising rammed down my throat.

However I think raw viewership will help with surfacing the video to a larger audience, surely YouTube sees "ad-free" viewership as still a valid barometer of mass appeal and would therefore seek to boost that video in hopes of getting more ad-supported eyeballs on it.

Or I am speaking out of my ass, who knows.

I tend to think there will be a degree of variety, I believe that often in our forests it tends to be the underbrush that tends to be the more varied with gum trees and some acacias being the larger species a lot of the underbrush develops under. That being said I am in no way an expert on forestry and would defer to just about anyone with a passing familiarity of Australian forest biodiversity.
