There are not many people that this actually describes, unless it's for instructional videos, which already get recommended and boosted for quality by the algorithm based on view count and average seconds watched. Unless you have solid numbers, "There's many peoples" is not a reliable enough fact to operate based on.
Everything other than instructional videos is watched by: people who have a preexisting interest in a video searching for/clicking on it already certain they will like it, a content creator's existing subscriber community, or a person seeing the video shared by someone they know--usually embedded outside of YouTube. In zero of these cases will the person watching the video get to see the like/dislike bar before starting to watch the video, and in nearly zero of these cases will seeing the dislike bar alone dissuade someone from watching the rest of a video. Reading the comment section might dissuade them, but that still exists.
Overall the dislike bar serves brigading, botting, and protest voting campaigns more accurately and frequently than it serves as an indicator of quality for the majority of types of YouTube videos. After all, what meaningful difference in action would a 12% down voted video have on you vs a 20% down voted one? Most bars are still majority green so quality is not readily discernable, and the majority of the heavily red video bars of non-instructional videos are caused by brigading and targeted harassment and therefore also not reflective of quality.
And restricting dislikes actually does reduce harassment, as tested extensively by researchers with a financial interest in understanding the truth and increasing the positive experience of its users. Your arguments however are from the realm of wishful thinking and conjecture.
But we are getting away from your original arguments: dislikes for YouTube videos produced with effort are still more valid than dislike counters on every tweeted out off-hand thought as proposed by Elon, dislike tallies are not useful criticism of anything without accompanying written feedback, dislike tallies have not directly helped you or anyone else to improve themselves, but every platform user being made to think twice about how many dislikes each post of their could receive could cause unnecessary self-censorship. Lastly, the internet is for everyone, including those who want to create and post all day but also avoid seeing a visual counter of dislikes on everything they put out there.
