New Youtube method?? - this is insane

I did some little testing with this thing today. The way I did was by adding manual views using two mobile phones with 4G residential IPs. The classic switch to airplane then back to mobile data mode.
As you can see in the added screenshot below, I have an average view duration of 3:25 on a 3:03 video. The 12:09 segment is from when I started adding views using the 0.25 speed option.

It looks weird, and nice. The watch time grows by a lot more than it should.
No idea how this will affect the video just yet. The video itself is in a highly competitive niche and I'll let you all know if I ever see it ranked in any way with this thing. I suppose it will take a day or two for the analytics to fully update themselves.
For the moment, I'll keep adding around 20 or so more views.

Any video around 30seconds gets auto converted as short. However you can also watch it as normal video too.
