My other idea is for YouTube to have a minimum video quality level of "no video" to save bandwidth and processing power

My idea is for YouTube to automatically drop the video quality to the minimum (144p if available) when the video is playing in a background tab

If either of these things already exist then that was my idea as well

"144p" is a statement of video quality, I didn't realise audio quality was connected to it. So I guess separating the two might be required

IIRC stereo audio is only available at or above 480p. Found that out the hard way trying to upload music without breaking the bandwidth bank.

use a browser&version&setup that dies Not Play/preload closed Tabs.

I suspect the use case is listening to music in background tabs.

If YouTube implements a feature to detect playing in a background tab they'll probably make it pause like on phones.

For users or for YouTube? If the latter then Google probably don't care, it's never made any money and they seem fine with that.
