Views support the videos in the algorithm.

Do you think someone like Louis Rossman, who wants to use Youtube to share his message but doesn't use YT as a business, would rather views or ad money?

Rossman has a separate business to support him.

Presumably Louis wants to reach as many people as possible and would like to know how many people he's reaching though.

		I suspect his desire for people to block ads ranks higher than his desire for statistics.
