I can't seem to get other options either... and if you click the "Quality -> Missing options?", you get this kind of info:

YouTube videos missing quality options on this browser
YouTube videos are available in many formats and resolutions. However, some browsers do not support newer video formats or quality options. This means these browsers may only have one or two video formats to choose from. We recommend upgrading your browser or operating system for the best viewing experience.
Below are some browser and operating system combinations that support YouTube's high-quality video formats:
Google Chrome (all operating systems)
MS Edge
Safari on Mac OS X 10.10 or newer
Firefox on Windows 7 or newer and on Mac OS X 10.10 or newer
Note: All resolutions may not be available on newly uploaded videos.
It would sound that it'd need some feature from the browser we don't have and spoofing wouldn't be enough, but why it would work for zukow... I wonder if he has some suitable settings saved in LocalStorage for example? Or how about having more exact string of a supported browser in ENV:OWB_USER_AGENT? Or could Youtube measure the speed of the machine or network connection somehow before giving the options? At least zukow has about the fastest MorphOS computer ever :)
