Why does the low battery notification so counter intuitive?

The notification should not pause a video just to have that same message burning up your fully bright phone battery. More often than not, when I’m watching tv on my phone, I’m washing dishes and cannot touch my phone with greasy, soaking wet hands. It is hilariously inconvenient to have my video interrupted and battery drained while ironically notifying me of a low battery…Like if your gonna drain my battery, at least let me watch my video without a notification (or maybe just a background notification that doesn’t interrupt video playback).

Another good option would be a setting which when enabled allows the phone to automatically exit video and turn off the screen to save power when the battery falls to 20%. Then after turning The screen back on it gives you a notification that video playback could drain the battery, switch to low power mode instead?
