The status of a vid on the website doesn’t matter as far as the already downloaded ones are concerned. Otherwise would be absolutely pointless to try to archive something.
Yes, that’s how the comments work.
The date options can be useful too (as only the video title has changed, the upload date should be the same).
Videos can be filtered by their upload date using the options --date, --datebefore or --dateafter. They accept dates in two formats:
Examples:
Download only the videos uploaded in the last 6 months
$ youtube-dl --dateafter now-6months
Download only the videos uploaded on January 1, 1970
$ youtube-dl --date 19700101
$ # Download only the videos uploaded in the 200x decade $ youtube-dl --dateafter 20000101 --datebefore 20091231
