No, it doesn't prove your point. Which is, I gather, that GCN is biased against steel as a material for bicycle frames. The "point" of the second video I referenced was not about steel, carbon or any other material. It was about old tech versus new. But, it was an awful test and I they didn't try to claim that it was at all scientific or even good really. It was just a playful video for people who don't take it as seriously as you seem to.
FWIW, I think GCN make some very informative and well produced videos.
