I don't really get why people are up in arms at this stuff. I hate the idea of doing these type of interviews, sure. But my grad program had 3k applications, 1k video interviews, 300 in person interviews, and only 100 actual roles. How the fuck else do they expect people to handle the sheer size of applications in management/HR roles?
Yeah lol that's because you don't seem to have any empathy for the people you are hiring. Why is it important if you don't care about it? Easy answer is it isn't.
Not just that
You should do some introspection.
If you are baffled it's not my responsibility to educate you.
The implication that volume of work excuses dehumanizing people and your other comment that "excluding some people is OK, they weren't going to succeed anyway", is clear as day, I'm not going to waste time writing a proof about why you suck.
You are selecting for the people privileged enough to know how or spend the time figuring out how to record and send video. Even if someone has used teams every day for presentations, it's easy to avoid using recording features when videoconferencing is all live.
If your workplace creates pre-recorded videos for office use, then sure I guess it's a skill you can select for.
