Quite aside from debating what the example circuit would do, I really dislike the "OMG everything you've been taught in school is WRONG" style of video like this. Especially when what was ostensibly wrong at school is actually correct, or at least correct enough for everyday use (and even some fields of advanced engineering usage) and far more convenient that solving multiple 3D fields.
For example, he goes on about the pulling chain back and forth example at the start. And implies that there's no way to explain that and just abandons that point there and then. When actually, P = V*I, and reversing both the voltage and the current doesn't change the sign of the power flow: P = -V * -I.
So in the simple model, both V and I regularly invert in an AC system, and P = V * I stays positive.
In the poynting model, both E and H regularly invert in an AC system, and PoyntingVector = E x H stays pointing in the same direction. It's the same damn thing.
But no, for maximum clickbait and sensationalism, let's just fail to explain how the conventional high school explanation addresses the question, and throw every physics high school teacher in the world under the bus while they fend off students parroting this video. (OK, to be fair, that might be overreaching, I don't know if that's actually much of a problem. But I can't help but wonder if this video is diseducational on balance.)
