Its because the youtube accepts progressive (video and audio together) and adaptive( video and audio separated) formats. You can download them both and join them together. In the combination you want. You can see the code for doing that here: class_pytubefix_use, you can use the class in your own code, or use mine. I made this GUI that interacts with pytubefix for me to fast download all the stuff and avoid the advertisement, in it you can click in the resolution and select any resolution you want.

It is a work in progress, and needs some documentation, but is somehow working.

Not a bug.

Your code is downloading the Progressive stream. For your URL that is 360p.

Suggestion. Learn about audio and video streams and how to work with them.
