Here is what they say at the linked url (https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/6051134))

>We regularly verify the legitimacy of the accounts and actions on your YouTube channel.
>We also may make corrections to site metrics in YouTube Analytics to fix consistency issues across different sources.
>These processes make sure that our site metrics are free of spam, abuse, and closed accounts to keep YouTube fair for everyone.


>It’s important that subscriber numbers stay accurate to make sure you’re organically building your audience.
>Closed accounts and subscribers that are identified as spam won't count toward your total number of subscribers.
>They also won't show in your subscriber list and they don’t impact views or watch time.

It is what people here already know for long: some bot check an account to see if it is "legit" and simply drops it from the count if not. The thing is: the false positive ratio must be absurd for all these complaints from real people
