boomer vs gen z cello teacher

The Boomer cello teacher skit is probably my favorite because there are potentially a few layers of interpretation to dig into.
On a base level, it's a funny skit with over the top acting.
Going one level deeper, the teacher, while he may ultimately be right, delivers the message in a condescending way which makes his teaching flawed.
Going two levels deeper, the student ultimately follows what the teachers says to do. Being a good student means taking criticism to heart and finding the kernel of truth and being able to disregard all of the ancillary fluff.
Going three levels deeper, this skit raises the question, how much verbal abuse should students put up with if their mentors are also legitimately masters of teaching?
You can interpret the skit as shallow or as deep as you would like.
