Numberphile should make a video about the number “1488”

What are your thoughts on channels like Numberphile, 3Blue1Brown, Mathologer, PBS Infinite series, Welch Labs, and other channels dedicating to explaining/discussing topics in Mathematics? Is a channel like Numberphile misinformative at explaining topics like Infinite Sums (Specifically towards their videos on the sum of all positive integers equaling -1/12) or are they just mathematical showmen whereas they talk about topics in an interesting (but not completely rigorous way) so that people who find interest in the topics they discuss get the inspiration to look for rigorous explanations or learning those said topics entirely? Also rank these channels from best to worst so there's plenty of arguing in this thread too.

And do make sure to post more meme images of numberphile, I live off of them
