Did you know you can just copy paste a youtube URL onto its own line and it transforms into a video player auto-magically via oembed? There’s no need for embed codes/shortcodes/plugins
Simply create a blank line, and take the address of the youtube video and paste it into the editor:
These youtube videos should not play automatically
WordPress will pick up any URL for Youtube on a line by itself and convert it into a Video player automatically via OEmbed, the same is true of other services such as soundcloud, instagram, vimeo, flickr, tweets etc etc
