I agree.

I found myself watching some of the videos over and over, and skipping others with only a cursory glance. The text was easy to read.

When I watch videos with text I find myself pausing a lot. And nothing is more annoying than trying to rewind a long video to re-watch a 5 second clip: I'm always overshooting and wasting a ton of time.

Reminds me of the "multimedia" of the 90s. :)
