Only for the blurb/ad for his extra content off-YouTube. If native monetization was so great, why not also upload the other videos to YouTube?

Because he's heavily invested in Nebula and believes their system is better for him and other creators in the long term. That doesn't mean he believes YouTube monetization doesn't work at all, just he prefers to keep bonus videos on Nebula to entice users to join.

That sounds like a "I want to monetize the bonus videos... and I refuse to not monetize the ad too". Good for him while he can pull it off, but IMHO the future lies in using PeerTube for the ads/blurbs, or directly the whole videos along a Patreon or similar, and leave YouTube behind.
