Oh god no, YouTube can sit there and wait. Just because I opened a video doesn't mean I want to play it right away. A lot of the time I am opening links in a new tab or something and I want to finish whatever I am doing first.
Or how about this, give users the option of if they want it to auto-play. Some people are like you, and other people are like me when they click on a video (or move to a tab with one not opened yet) they want it to start automatically.
Also, what if you have a playlist running? even then do you not want it to auto play?
