I didn't watch the video, because to me too often JPG fail in a challenging light situation.
Since the lazy programmers at Phase One still didn't manage to bring out their Capture One in a version which can handle compressed Fuji X-T2 raw I use JPG and those overly fat 50 MB raw files just because too often the JPGs fall short in shadows, highlights or color or the camera is just not set up properly for the current situation and I have no time to change those settings next to others I also have to take an eye on.
The JPGs I only use to organise the pictures in Aperture which is no longer maintained by even only lazy programmers.
I must say, after using the X-T2 for 2 months now, my feelings about it are not overly enthusiastic anymore. I don't see it as primarily JPG optimised.
Also, the camerastore's way of doing default set JPG and then print it, might be pragmatically appropriate, but hardly the best possible way to get out best results. And that's going for all tested cameras.
