At the end of the day I think it's only a few amateur magicians on youtube that blatantly lie in this way - like saying a deck can be shuffled by a spectator when it can't. It's not unethical, it's just annoying and immature. A professional magician would never let this situation happen live.
Yes, as I said in my previous post, it would be wrong to market a card trick by stating the deck can be shuffled when it can't.
