Video-first defaults correlated with abandoned sessions. Audio, transcripts and chaptered downloads correlated with completed seminars. The engineering recommendation is a bandwidth budget per module, enforced in the CMS, not a voluntary ‘low data’ toggle buried in settings. GlobalMind University should treat platform performance as an academic equality issue. A global digital university that ships luxury pages has chosen its students.
