I've only had three shots of Espresso this morning, so let me see if I understand: This is a video made by Microsoft making fun of the idea that they might make a terrible video. Ah. It's meant to be ironic, and presumably it tells us they know the difference between good taste and bad taste.
I think this is isomorphic to a Bond Villain pointing out all of his expensive and tasteful possessions. We all know that if the villain really had taste, it is not necessary to tell us he has taste, merely for him to live a tasteful life and we will observe his taste directly.
My suggestion to Microsoft (just in case they're trolling HN for ideas): Do good work and make good promotional videos. We will gladly forget the past without you telling us that you are beyond making bad videos about products that used to be questionable.
