That's not accurate, they didn't say "charge creators who have their own sponsorships and merch stores" he said it as two separate statements "Charge creators" and "They have sponsorships and merch stores."
While we're on the topic, YT does already penalize people for videos that contain advertisements and have in the past put strikes videos that link to crowdfunding pages. Monetary fines for the larger pages might make sense, but idk how profitable it would be, especially if it gets contested in courts and adds legal fees.
