It's not clear that is does affect Airbus does it?

It looks like only the LEAP-1b engines are affected by this, and I was under the impression that LEAP-1b was 737-MAX-only?

(A320 has LEAP-1a as far as I can see).

he covers this in the video, but both engines have the same LRD (Load reduction device), but it's more about how the bleed system is done on if it's an impact or not, and he doesn't know if the other planes have the same flaw or not.

From [1], it looks like the 737 flight deck ventilation bypasses the mix manifold.

This does not seem to be the case for the A320 family of jets. [2]
