I had nothing better to do so I watched it. Not surprising, he is
biased, in spite of his statement to the contrary, but so is everybody
else. To paraphrase; You need auto focus for portraits. Bland
statement, to which I say; No, not really, but Canon does have the least
expensive moderately fast 50mm lens.
If there's a must have lens in a system, then that's the system you
buy. Unless of course you can't afford it. Then you get the closest
thing you can afford, and make do.
There, I boiled down his entire video into three sentences.

I will pass along this video, which was featured on PetaPixel. It is
by a Canon guy (who I guess is "famous" but I didn't know of him prior
to this) who was so impressed by the new Nikon that he was ready to
chuck all his Canon stuff and switch. Except... he couldn't. The
reasons why are interesting (and, I think, perhaps relevant to Pentax
DSLR users also).
Also interesting (if not controversial) is his use of DXO lens data to
make resolution comparions across platforms.
There is a fair amount to react to here, if the spirit moves you.
Watch the video with notepad in hand.
