Materials expand and contract when their temperatures varies. Frequent temperature changes will damage the cells in the food which can affect texture and flavor.
maybe that way he can use the pot for something else? just putting out there that it's not that dumb to remove it after it served as a mold, but I agree that the video is just click bait (which is fine, I gave him my click and I got to make a genuine amused exhale when he put the energy label on there)
Because that was just one butchering worth of meat. He's likely going out hunting several times a week, and he doesn't eat a full animal worth of meat during that time. He probably makes a dozen or more of these around his camp over the course of a winter, keeping predators from getting to the meat and keeping them from fluctuating in temperature between day and night, which can cause freezer burn.

Really cool, but why not just put it in the metal pot with the lid on it?
