Compression is not magic. I use HandBreak with H.264 and an mp4 container. If, after you compress, you wish to reduce the file size you have to reduce resolution, which I don't wish to do, or framerate which seems to me to lose very little. If youtube recompresses an already compressed H.264 file then its not going to look so hots. Still it matters not to me, if you want to take 3X the time and disk space to load the video so you can watch at 15fps instead of 5fps that's fine, Ill upload at 15fps from now on.

No, I think you missed my point. What goes to YouTube from your computer doesnt matter. They have limits on how large and how long in time your movie can be, but you can upload the same video with H264 and one uncompressed, which would result in vastly different filesizes, but as long as the files are within the size requirements YouTube allows you to upload (you cant hit these with a 10 minute video without really trying) it will compress the video for you again, and it wont matter to the end user. The quality might change slightly because of recompression, but the point is, what you record at is not a problem. Record lossless if you like at 30 FPS and it will take YOU a lot longer to upload, but wont affect our download or viewing speeds.
