There's so many ways people could take advantage of this in terrible ways. That said, it seems like it could be a feature that gets unlocked if you meet certain criteria, channel age, monetization, copyright claims etc

Not really, they could show a tab that displays the history of all the edits. People can go back and watch to see what changed and in turn add more watch time benefiting the algorithm.

I think you might underestimate the creativeness of people acting in bad faith on youtube. I agree it would be a great feature for legitimate creators, but unfortunately we have to consider the ways people would take advantage of it too.
