…unless you want to watch offline. Say, for example, on a plane.

The YouTube web app allows you to download videos you might want to watch offline. Not sure about the other apps, but it's easy. So, no need for an app there.

See above; this app sadly won't be available.

You're implying native app. Previous comment said (browser) web app. Not sure who is correct on feature support, but you're cross talking on the product SKU.

Not in Safari you can't.

Chrome, Edge, Firefox or Opera only.

Either Google only built it to use Widevine (which Safari doesn't support) or Safari's limitations on the amount of data that can be stored make it too unreliable to roll out to customers.

So, it's still an Apple problem.
