 Frankly, I have enormous respect for #YouTube creators who can record their presentations -- whether complicated or simply expounding directly to camera for 5, 10, 15 minutes or even longer at a stretch, with few or in some cases even zero cuts, especially vastly annoying jump cuts. In my opinion, jump cuts are the realm of the amateur who is unwilling to take the time to prepare a proper presentation for the public, irrespective of the topic.
