A playlist is enough when order is the job

If the viewer only needs a sequence of videos, a playlist may be enough.

A knowledge product fits when retrieval is the job

If the viewer needs a framework, answer, example, or decision point from across multiple videos, source-backed productization is a better fit than video order alone.

Mechanism comparison

Playlist: videos grouped by topic. Knowledge product: lessons and paths organized around source-backed use. Other archives may need a planner, diagnostic, or workflow instead.

Source-evidence note

A channel name, YouTube title, or URL is not enough. A URL identifies a video. It does not prove the lesson inside it. Useful reviews need a real channel name, source title or URL, the audience outcome or context, and the exact lesson, framework, question, decision model, or timestamped passage being referenced when available.
