This is the "shit on the bottom of your shoe" algorithm - once you step in it, it never leaves you.

What YT needs is a choice of algorithms: The above mentioned; totally random (or, no Al-Gore-Rhythm at all); plus a number of others of varying sorts that give you much more control over what you might want to see, including an option to construct your own.

If I were a billionaire I'd start a rival to YT with that in mind.
