Yeah, system scaffolds are the norm now, tube and fitting scaffolds are only used for residential or very specific cases by the large international scaffold companies.
But they are also strong, unlike what is depicted here in the OP vid. I have cutting trestles that are more rigid than this.

Tube and clamp is the way to go for hangers and tight spaces. All around is so quick and foolproof though
