If there is video and a text post, I think the text post is almost always better (except for the few rare cases where the text description is inadequate, like woodworking etc ...). The long videos where author just spends time talking are annoyingly slow, and looking at graphs in video player is simply miserable.

Yeah, these days I use the little Ask button to just give a summary of videos more and more. Most videos could have been an email. I'll usually only let videos run when I need background noise, when there's sufficient detail throughout that a summary wouldn't capture, or when it's not an informative video and there's actual value to me in letting it run, like humorous videos.
Share your sentiment, but in this case the https://electrek.co article mentions Ziroth / Ryan as source of the information, and I'd guess (not seen the video though) as original research it carries enough weight to warrant that amount of time (which I'm very probably not going to spend, either).
Honestly there's lots of details so I can see why it would need to be 44 minutes, and it's still a video that also has to explain complexe schemes with multiple companies too
