So you'd happily lose the fame and money in a heartbeat because that's not the reason you're doing it right? Neither of those are my current goals but let's not pretend here that the end game isn't inspiring a community AND being able to make a living off your passion--

Yeah... You can get noticed without ads. Even if your video has ads, if it is only getting a handful of views it is not getting promoted by YouTube. This is a false idea that every single monetized video somehow is advertised. I wish it were true, but it isn't.
I'm aware that you can, but YouTube itself will not recommended them as often on the site because of the lack of ads. They make less money from ad-less videos so will always promote videos with ads enabled over those without. No monetisation = less ads = less revenue for YouTube

Your video WILL NOT be recommended regardless if it doesn't first have a few thousand views. Focus on getting those views, then you can worry about ad revenue.

I think you're misinterpreting what I mean by recommended. I'm talking about suggested videos at the end of a video or how highly it places in related searches. Not being monetised is going to push it further and further down the lists, and again, the revenue isn't the issue here
