The lack of cooling in the air is definitely something that should be fixed, it’s done like that on purpose so it doesn’t perform as well as the Pro. For the price it’s mad.
No it isn’t, it’s done like that because it’s not meant to be used that way and it’s meant to be lighter and slimmer. His solution didn’t work, and while it probably could, why would Apple add this when it adds points of failure to a device that doesn’t need it

That’s not really the point of the MacBook Air. The Air lineup has always been about doing quick, bursty tasks effectively (email, web browsing, word documents etc). Apple Silicon chips have gotten to the point where fans are not necessary to achieve this objective, so Apple skips a fan in the Air models to help better differentiate the various MacBook models.
The 14in MacBook Pro with M3 chip is essentially just a high-end MacBook Air, as it carries most of the same limitations minus cooling.
Because this gets them views. We’ve been down this road before. Nobody at Linus likes these clickbaity titles they have to use for videos, but this is what people click and watch, which is what generates them money.
Probably because of the click-bait title “We fixed it!” where nothing is to be fixed. A title like “Apple, we have a proposition” would be better.

The M1 Air is an incredible value. And it’s got no need for a fan. I’d much rather a completely silent machine.

The title is not “we fixed it”
LTT changes the title multiple times after uploading to see what gets them the most views.

It gets them views and it also gets them flak from people who are annoyed with it.
Their quest for views doesn’t absolve them from criticism of hyperbolic clickbait titles.
