All valid points. But regarding the measurements, neither LTT or GN testing methodology are realy scientific. Those are youtubers with limited understanding of experimental design and analysis. I have never seen them do simple significance tests or try to explain the variability in the data. But I havent watched all the videos so 乁⁠(⁠ ⁠•⁠_⁠•⁠ ⁠)⁠ㄏ

Idk why they don't just run the test 3 times and average the result.

It would fix a lot of these issues... If you are testing a cooler, remove, clean CPU, reapply thermal compound and reseat cooler.

It's really not that hard to make their testing, maybe not perfect, but a lot better

Hardware unboxed does this if I remember correctly
