I think the rule is simple: Videos can only be justified if the issue illustrated requires exact timing. Everything else should be replaced with static screenshots.

For example: We don't need videos on how to build a home, because a screenshot is just as good. We can all figure it out from there.

However, a video of liquid duplication/obsidian factory is useful because there is a timing issue involved. It actually matters how quickly you click. Too fast or too slow means the entire process doesn't work.

With that in mind, any video that doesn't illustrate a specific timing-related issue needs to be replaced with a screenshot.
