ah yea its not true lossless, but optimized upscale or the sort - but better than some ripping options out there
no it's not an upscale or anything like that, you're just making the file bigger but the audio bits/samples are 100% identical to the already damaged source file from youtube.
it's like converting a JPEG back into RAW, you can technically do it, but it's not gaining anything.
