I stopped watching 3.5 minutes in when her 'solution' to the top level UI was to delete the downloads status button and half the other menus like 'File', you know where you exit the program and said 'nobody uses' all the store sorting tools. This should be used as a class for how to ruin your ux for the sake of a pretty ui
I think you're making the classic mistake of "all users are like me". I personally liked pretty much all of her proposed changes and agree with her that Steam's current offering is a mess of disjointed design elements. I find the layout noisy, complicated, and hard to navigate, while her proposals all felt intuitive.
