Then slow things down and focus on quality. Right now you are willfully (and I don't really understand why, you don't have shareholders) prioritizing quantity over quality. You might find that most of us viewers aren't just sheep grazing on whatever LTT videos pops up in front of us, we are picky and prefer higher quality videos. If you make more polished videos, you would have higher retention, more views etc. The algorithm prioritizes average view percentage as well. You have proven that you would rather just rush a piece out instead of taking the time and due diligence needed to make a high quality video. There is no excuse for this.
I'd argue instead of losing $100, $200, $300, $500!?!? in employee wages on that video, you lost $5000? $10000? $15000??!?! on losing the prototype? I don't even think you would have lost money. If the time/money was spent making a better video, there would have been more engagement, you would have gotten more views, and made more money. Nobody in your company likes the lack of quality and attention given to videos, listen to them.
You have nothing to lose by slowing things down. Literally nothing. You are a leader in the industry, don't lose all your good will from the community trying to keep up a high upload schedule waiting for the quality to improve. Slow things down until you can get things right, and then do it right faster. Right now you are just pushing as much junk out the door as possible, praying that junk to turn into gold.
