The stairstep myth was debunked decades ago and he replays an old video showing why. This video doesn’t go into the 48/44.1 debate at all. Would hav been nice if it did. AV/Video/Streaming defaults to 48 and that’s why it’s important. 96 is just a multiple and that’s why it’s irrelevant.

Also, it doesn’t really go into bit depth and why that’s important but the follow up video does.

The third goes info when higher sample rates are advantageous. All four in the series are quite good.
