I am really surprised this didn't kick up

A guy on the internet makes a video, uses some technical jargon, and appeals to your common sense. He must be right, right?

Well, no. He isn’t educated or trained on the topic of his video. He doesn’t have the knowledge to back up the claims he’s passing off as fact. Sure, there is in fact some truth to some of the things he’s saying, but sometimes the details are REALLY important.

Engineering doesn’t always follow common sense. It’s damn complicated. And some of that is knowing when certain principles apply. There are 100% legitimate engineering principles and equations the simply DO NOT apply in certain situations. Knowing a few basic principles is good, but it doesn’t mean you’re an engineer.

This is like all the arguments about which kind of subframe connectors are best too. Until someone runs a finite element analysis, no one here can actually know.
