I'm really confused at that take. If you watched the Corridor Channel on YouTube, you can catch a lot of times that Unreal is treated as a draft, or the on-set reference, and gets replaced almost always, before shipping the final. Something doesn't add up here.

There are definitely movies and TV shows now that are using unreal for the final render. But mainly because they can't afford anything else.
Having watched a great deal of Andromeda, Star Trek, and Hercules/Xena growing up, I would submit that weak video effects can be perfectly fine as long as the actors take them seriously enough.
