It's because 'EasyList' blocks the EX.CO player, which is known adware/spyware. The remaining placeholder can be removed with si.com##.is-exco-player.

There is however a problem with the embedded YouTube video too. It fails to load with uBO, due to a redirect rule found in 'AdGuard Tracking Protection filter': https://github.com/AdguardTeam/AdguardFilters/issues/139827#issuecomment-1891049087

@Khrin: That's not enough. It also needs this:

si.com#@#.pbs__player
@@||cdn.ex.co/player/$script,domain=si.com
