It is really unfortunate because it is a good video. Linus himself said that they had no choice but to have stupid thumbnails and titles so that the algorithm would put their videos front and centre. Youtube is to blame in this case. Linus Media Group is a business, so I understand the situation.

As for the video, it really is a good one. They compared the Mac Pro and Mac Studio to a PC using various benchmarks and concluded that the Mac Pro was just not worth it.

It’s only for a really specific use case of professionals who need expansion cards (not video cards) to do work, and who have deep pockets. Not really useful for others.

Not sure why you're getting downvoted here, but you're right about this one and that's what the video concludes.
