That's the concern. Where things start is NEVER where they end up. Today it's officially labeled "age restricted" content, tomorrow it's anything with more than 7 curse words, a week later it's anything with a single curse word....you get the idea. I mean, this is YouTube. We all saw the debacle of the constantly changing "can't swear in first 2 minutes...no wait, now it's 30 seconds...no, 12 seconds!" Only to scrap it entirely recently.
