This is also a problem with paid educational content e.g. Pluralsight.

You want 101 tier material? They have it in droves, for every language/framework/concept.

You want high level system design/architecture? Team management training? Project scheduling/estimation? Or other software engineering topics: Good luck with that.

I mean, I get it, you're selling shovels to gold miners. But at some scale, it must make sense to target smaller niches.

In my opinion, at that kind of level it's more efficient to invest in books and/or in person training/mentoring, if available.

If it can be put into a book, it can be put into a presentation. "More efficient" is in the eye of the beholder, different people learn in different ways (see Audio Book Vs. Book Vs. eBook for another example, an Audio Book is less "efficient" too).

Personal training/mentoring isn't really even in this sphere in terms of cost/opportunity/availability. If it is free & high quality at work, great, but then you wouldn't care what YT/Pluralsight/et al has to offer.

Would it be fair to say that there're actually a lot of videos on such more advanced topics, but they typically are recordings of talks from various conferences?

Uncle Bob's cleancoders.com for some of those perhaps?
