I feel like whatever point Steve is trying to make here could have been a community post or even a short rather than what looks like a 45 minute hit piece on his competitor.

This appears (from the thumbnail and first few minutes of content) to be drama for the sake of drama. If anyone can summarise to the contrary, please do.

No. Being sponsored by products you review, auctioning off prototypes of reviewed products despite agreeing to giving it back, wrong and erroneous data - just some of the problems outlined in the video.

But the most funny thing is that GN foresaw comments like yours happening - the community will just scream and defend LTT - without realising how bad you are for other consumers. Congrats!
