Of course as the parent I am the final arbiter. But I'd like them to take the first swipe. Every other streaming platform for kids does this. Why can't YouTube?

I will channel urs hoezel giving an answer he once gave me to a similar question:

"it's too hard"

which translated of course means, "the cost benefit analysis doesn't come down in favor of spending the effort".

Actually it sometimes really means "it is too hard".
