Why?   YouTube’s Terms of Service for developers:

II. Prohibitions

Your API Client will not, and You will not encourage or create functionality for Your users or other third parties to:

14. use a video player smaller than the minimum video player size set forth in the YouTube API documentation and specifications.

We also see other possible prohibitions of YouTube’s Developer Terms of Service:

II. Prohibitions

Your API Client will not, and You will not encourage or create functionality for Your users or other third parties to:

 
6.  modify, replace or otherwise disable the functioning of links to YouTube or third-party websites provided in the YouTube search results or otherwise provided through the YouTube API or YouTube player;

 

7.  modify, replace, interfere with or block advertisements placed by YouTube in the YouTube Data, YouTube audiovisual content, or the YouTube player;

 

10.  access any portion of any YouTube audiovisual content by any means other than use of a YouTube player or other video player expressly authorized by YouTube;

 

14. use a video player smaller than the minimum video player size set forth in the YouTube API documentation and specifications.

Not sure the meaning of paragraph #14 other than assume any size that might not support all player functions.(ie. player-control-bar)
