If you watch the video you'll know that he's trying to say manufacturers are falsely advertising their products.
The info and such is the opening to his main point.
The way he explains also help a lot.

which isn't true at all, i have seen this video getting discussed at a few big photography pages (slrlounge or fstopper i forgot and also some other people sharing it). the problem is, a f2.8 will still be f2.8 regardless the sensor size. a phone sensor with the exact aperture and shutter speed + iso will produce the same result as a FF with same settings.

it's not that a f2.8 on a m43 is f5.6, it's just the amount of DOF the m43 produced is only 1/2 to what FF produces. imagine cropping a f2.8 picture, will the picture become darker at the end/ the exposure change? no, because it only crops the image, same with smaller sensor.
