I think YT Kids is shit as a babysitter for little kids particularly when we have the ABC. But my kids are older and have individual accounts with age based limits and it is working really well along with parental guidance ofcourse.

I do not give a fuck about foreign multinationals in general, particularly not tech ones, and I'll back a democratically elected Aussie government and our sovereignty against them on principle. But Youtube's account system is working out well for our family and I don't want to lose it otherwise I am going to have to spend effort on circumvention which is just a waste of everyone's time.
