Some videos are part of a playlist... if you copy the link to a video that's in a playlist, and pass it to youtube-dl, youtube-dl thinks you want the entire playlist, and downloads everything.

In this case, it would make more sense for youtube-dl to only downloaded the video specified by the "v=" option, and ignore the "list=".
