Gary, you are right. You mention a number of important issues and many more could be added. If you really want an instructive video and not just a nice video, then there is a lot more to do.

Speedy!!! Lots missed there in my opinion. The method of approach, types of tug, the type of tugs line, emergency procedures, how power and direction is indicated, process of disconnection (usually as dangerous as connecting if not more so), anchor washers and O/B discharges to name but a few

A nice video. Goes a bit too fast.
The use of ship lines as towline, as shown in the video, is not recommended. See `Tug Use in Port'.

Video How not to climb down a Pilot Ladder
published on 1 July 2020
The video was found on some social media channels in June 2020. When so many elementary mistakes are made and so many risks are taken, this is exactly what can happen! It's a demonstrative example of an unprofessional action: 1) Where is the life jacket? 2) No backpack on the shoulders. Use a rope to have the backpack lifted by the deck crew. 3) Where is the rest of the crew (on vessel / on the small boat) for safe assistance? What other mistakes have you discovered? We do not put videos...
