Maybe I’m just paranoid, but isn’t the (possibly unwritten) intent of this project to be able to flip the client and server around and run code in your browser and phone? I don’t understand their incentive to work on this unless they can use it to gatekeep “official” youtube clients (for example).

Incentive is that there is a small market segment that wants "actual privacy" and a concern that this segment could become very large at any moment due to publicity/awareness. Nobody wants to be caught with their pants down in that event.
