I believe you misunderstood his analysis.
At timestamp 6:36 of his video [1], laowhy86 analyzes a copy of the draft "The possible origins of 2019-nCoV coronavirus" to conclude that the virus must have come from the lab. This preprint has been shown to be false by future scholarship (see the citations of the draft at [2] for some examples).
Potholer then analyzes the veracity of the claims within that preprint in his video [3], starting with an excerpt of [1] starting at 2:02.
So the timeline should be:
Feb. 2020 - Preprint published
->
Apr. 2020 - laowhy's video
->
May 2020 - potholer's rebuttal
