Why don't we use PeerTube to host the videos for Lemmy/kbin?

Would sound stupid as I don't indepth of PeerTube yet but I have heard that PeerTube is federated video sharing platform. I also heard it can't hold much a load which makes sense as HD videos takes lots of load. That begs me the question why don't we use it for small/short videos(not those vertical videos) to build communities...

That will would cause load for peertube that it otherwise would have though. I'm not sure how well it will be able to scale. Hosting videos is really expensive. If something is already on YouTube it may be best to just leave it there so as to not put all our weight on a new, untested product.
