Because Privacy isn't 1 or 0 situation. It is granular thing you may think using YouTube crosses the line but others might not agree.

We as a community can choose what crosses the line for this community.

Personally I am fine with YouTube links, there is usually a bot posting a more private link down below if you want. It makes it easy to pick one of the other it isn't that big of a deal.
