Two stroke for lighter boats (because of weight) or when you like a more sportive style. 4 stroke for quieter and smoother cruising.

Worst comparison video I've ever seen. No test, driving, or actual facts to show a true comparison. I literally watched a video that just shows the question I had. Why would you post a question as a vid? Straight garbage

Would you rather go offshore with weed whacker technology or a car engine?

Weight went up not down. Old outboard weight about half of what a new with the same horsepower does

Nope- there was some talk of that many years ago, with old-tech two strokes, but today's versions are EPA compliant and then some. So not likely.
