They do, but the costs to store all of that high resolution video is enormous. Especially since it must be replicated to local repository for quicker access as popularity raises and removed when popularity falls on videos. The amount of content stored and served is significantly more than Netflix houses. That being said, ads are getting way too intrusive.
Honestly I’m surprised they haven’t done so already, they already have the tech to do it, probably need to scale it a bit.
Now I wonder if there aren’t SFW videos in pornhub from people that want to upload videos but don’t want to use YouTube. Or NSFW video that aren’t really porn, like a random guy reviewing videogames naked for some reason. I’m not checking either.
The really annoying part is YouTube gets all their content for free, while every other subscription video service pays for content.

other streaming services dont let pretty much anyone upload gigabytes of video
Me gesturing at gazillions of porn sites that lets anyone upload any videos…
If YouTube implodes, pornhub will immediately launch an sfw version to grab the fleeing content creators.

I remember people from certain subreddits used to upload full movies to pornhub and share them for shit and giggles.
