Yeah, I know what you are saying about the Bashi, but there are various systems within Shaolin from different time periods and from different "gates" that have routine with the same names but are different sets.
The Baji Quan that has incorporated jingang Bashi, which they got from the master of many styles Li Rundong. He brought in Inner Court Yard Shaolin sect version of Shaolin Bashi. But the other more known standard Shaolin calls their Danshi set the same identical movements with the same identical names as those of the Baji Quan Jingang Bashi and those look much more like what is seen today in Bajia Quan Jingang Bashi. I have video of old Shaolin master doing the Danshi really reall slow, he's in his 90s, in my Youtube Channel videos, and that set (which I learned long ago) is identical movements with those in some branches of Baji Quan, they have identical names for the movements too, kinda like what you showed in your video, but also not.
That particular Shaolin Jingang Bashi that I posted a video of is not really like the Danshi / Baji Quan Jingang Bashi, it is from a different Shaolin system and it is doing for training to step certain ways, that are much more like XY stepping.
Compare these videos by the old master and with Baji Quan and you will see they are doing the same things, and indeed the moves have identical names in both styles.
Here is Shaolin Danshi:

I think that from what I saw the modern Zhuan Zhuang in XY comes from Bagua Zhang influence but that was in turn from Zhuan Zhuang that was done all over Hebei by Mei Hua Zhuang stylists, who very much interacted with BGZ people via Boxer Rebellion connections.
