This is highly reductive. In that shot, he’s interacting with virtual water, sitting on top of a virtual creature and the top of his arm is virtual as well. The argument online was whether it was fully CG or partially CG. Your version is one that nobody would pick because it wouldn’t work in the context of the shot. The anatomy of the Navi doesn’t map exactly to a human, especially the musculature. You’d also need the geometry in shot as well for interactions with other virtual elements. It’s very easy to be an armchair expert. It’s much harder once you start delving into the intricacies of the work required.
