For videos that have never been played, the native video controls show only the play button, as in the attached screenshot. This is inconvenient because you have to play the video first in order to get the other controls such as volume, fullscreen, PiP, and AirPlay. It would be very nice to have those controls before the video has ever been played.

On macOS, you can access "Enter Full Screen" and "Enter Picture in Picture" from the contextual menu of an unplayed video, so it's unclear why an unplayed video doesn't also have these visible controls.
