short-form content isn't superior to long-form content or lectures, of course. however, it can be useful for explaining some ideas simply. for example, a quick visual video demonstrating a maths proof or a brief "what if" scenario can be effective. 3blue1brown, minutephysics, etc. also create some great short videos. it's not a replacement for a lecture, but rather a brief intro / overview.
