Chen Bing uses the word Taiji and this is an excerpt of his training, per the video.
Do you not approve of this type of training? If so, what is taiji training? I am not understanding you completely.

called taiji. I don’t see much.
Is it conductive to learning what “taiji” is and means and how this applied in a combative setting.
I don’t feel this type of training would lead one to understand it...others might find different.

you've already noted that the focus of the practice as shown in the clips is oriented towards the newer formats available.
It's been discussed here many times, including videos of those teaching and competing.

That's why I think some of the training seen in the video has more to do with "what the students approve" rather than "what Chen Bing approves."
