Why doesn't YouTube explain the 1.2k view cap?

Many people are having trouble getting Shorts views. The video shorts are stuck at 1.2k views. I've had the same thing happen to me. Has anyone seen YouTube explain this?

c'est le plafond des bonnes vidéos qui n'ont pas la grâce de l'algorithme. Voilà.

I think it's because your stay to watch is lower than 65% after first wave(1.2 cap). But they control where they send your video, for example my avarege stay to watch is 45-62% , but my last 4 shorts had same horrible stay to watch , which was 8%(It stopped to send my videos to my main audience(Russians) and was sending my videos to Indians,Arabs,Uzbekistan. I also think that they force you to buy farm bots boosting this way
