Good question and you're actually correct. Monetization looks at public watch hours, which will only be true for a live stream video when it's archived and set to public. Hope this helps clarify.
@YouTube @TeamYouTube Question re: live-streaming that I'd like to get an answer to. When you're streaming, do live watch hours count towards your watch hours requirement for monetization? Or is it just watch hours on the VOD after the live-stream is over? Thanks.
