This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
I don’t think my “window of experience” has any impact on the objective reality that cable had ads from square 1.
Unless for some countries the cable experience didn’t have ads from square one, then people in those countries have a different reality.
But globally, yes, you’re point is well made and I didn’t know about it (thanks!), and is arguably much more relevant if that timeline and jurisdiction/territory match that of the corporations which currently run the streaming world, which is very much the case by my count.
