If you use yt-dlp frequently, why not keep it set up in a permanent venv, with an executable on the path? That's what I do (via Pipx). Lets me use a variety of command options while reasoning about the command normally.

    I would assume because the tool is updated frequently, and has a tendency to not work properly if you aren't using the latest version.

      Ah, I just `pipx update yt-dlp` when that happens.
