helps me remove the youtube studio analytics option which then allows me to be more focused on creating and sharing then looking at numbers.

It is a solid option, but could use a little work. I notice that sometimes on pages that I have previously removed elements, that the first time I come back after a while the remove elements will be there again, but if I refresh the page they are gone as expected. Small bug and not difficult to get around.
