Please run again with -v, such as:

$ youtube-dl -v https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=byTOZIvyXPo

and then check at the top for the lines:

[debug] System config: []
[debug] User config: [ .. THIS IS WHAT I'M INTERESTED IN .. ]
[debug] Custom config: []
[debug] Command-line args: [u'-v', u'https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IzPxJK4drcc']
[..]
[debug] youtube-dl version 2020.09.20

and mail them here ... One should see there how yt-dl parses your
config and hopefully what goes wrong with it.

HTH,
