I don’t think Nerdonymous was trying to hate on fan preservations. I think he was just pointing out how some fans tend to try to discredit George’s original contributions to the OT rather than merely criticizing his poor creative decisions later in life (the Special Editions and the Prequels). Some fans have tried using George’s poor decisions from 1997 onward as proof that he was always incompetent and that the OT was never truly his accomplishment. I think Nerdonymous did a poor job of articulating that, but I’m pretty sure that’s what he meant. He wasn’t bashing Harmy or anything.

I do agree, though, that this video has a lot of filler and feels rather mean-spirited and vitriolic at times. And him accusing Paul Hirsch of being a liar is in very poor taste.
