It does a bit more, not sure exactly why. This is on iOS 8. For a Youtube video embedded in Flash, it replaces with the iframe, or a reasonbly looking substitute. To that it also will put its own video controller on video playback - losing the benefit of the rest of the Youtube bells and whistle. This is not only for Youtube but for HTML5 in general. Also I do believe they never autoplay (yay!) Note that Apple made the choice to not show a Flash placeholder - just empty space - which is IMHO bad.
