I have now seen a few reviewers mention this so I think I might try it for 24 hours as I can see their points.
 
Uh-oh!

I’m already feel seasick just looking at that screenshot! 😉
 
You won't get accidental presses if you just wear the watch correctly and not put it right down against your wrist.

and don't wear gloves

I've been wearing mine like this for quite a while, maybe since my series 0, on the left wrist, with buttons on the left, the screen image is right side up though, unlike the video thumbnail. started when it was cold out, and my gloves kept hitting the buttons, not because of some YouTube video.

Just skimmed the video, but looks like they also think that using thumb to roll the crown makes sense.

I've also switched to app list instead of the icon cloud thing, makes it much easier to find things.
 
Wear the watch with the crown facing towards your heart and you won’t have anymore accidental triggers. I have been doing that for years. YouTuber fails again.
I wear it with the crown facing my hand and never have accidental triggers, even during pushups, stretches, etc. pretty much everyone I see who has that issue is wearing their watch too low.
 
Oh noes!! The index finger has to multitask! The horror!

I wear mine on my right wrist with the crown on the side opposite from my hand simply because I have tattoos on my left wrist so the watch is basically useless there. I never realized just how much trauma and stress I was imparting upon my left index finger. Not to mention just how emotionally scarring it must be for my left thumb being tossed to the wayside like a discarded McDonald's bag. I feel like such a horrible person now..
