I’ve looked at your YouTube links ( well done with them) ( and admiration with managing to do that in this weather ) and agree that the valve appears in good order and the movement appears to be as it should be so, yes, there is something else causing this. I don’t know anything about the internals of the valve so cannot comment on your hypothesis, although it does sound feasible.
Maybe someone with a dead valve could perform an autopsy on it.
Good luck with your leak/drip problem.
