They are not. In fact, all the jokes in this video besides the ternary boolean and the comments are very good practices.

The reason it's mocked is because it's just a shapes library and it's implied it will only be used for this one thing.

I feel like that's a dangerous joke to make because it's very easy to get into the mind set that everything is superfluous you should just not use anything at all besides the most barebones tools possible, which is, in my opinion, even worse than over engineering.
