I had a lengthy phonecall with YouTube about their ad changes, which they're rolling out this month, and discussing ways to continue from here

A little update since uploading this video (5-Nov-2023), I am no longer able to disable postroll ads from now on. The checkbox still appears but I can no longer click it. This is also what will happen to older videos when you change the monetization settings.
Thanks to these lovely ASMR Creators for showing support:
