This seems to be a broad effect of certain types of YT channels unfortunately. I dread when someone makes a new video recommending the film cameras I use for example: enlightening a more casual yet somewhat less cash-strapped audience about how "cheap, feature-rich, and obtainable" they are, because they become immediately less cost-viable to maintain as a result. I dare not gatekeep a hobby, but there's always a subset of people who hoard/collect things that would be put to real use by others.

How much money you have to spend is always going to be positively correlated with how serious you are about a hobby.
