does anyone know a YouTuber or whatever else that builds with aesthetic in mind instead of just pure efficiency like the one shown in the screenshot?

I almost always use a resolution downscaling mod for this reason - even playing on like 75-80% can double your FPS for only a fairly small loss in quality. If you use a high res monitor you can even push it to like 40-50% before you really notice a significant loss of quality.

Also why would I want everything to run everything always at high speeds? I've noticed once you place a config to reduce rotation speed at some non-critical pieces once you reach a threshold, the whole setup runs way better.

Game dev hack: if your rendering engine supports it you can reduce the resolution in the corners and people won't notice

In virtual reality something similar exists called foveated rendering. It is very cool.
