Idk why people are complaining. It's only a 2min video for basic instructions, not detailed in depth

You really shouldn't bother with caulk around the base of the toilet. It doesn't do much and just gets in the way if you ever have a problem.

This is not real life. Real life, water valve is shot home water main valve might nit work and akways the toilet flange is rusted and needs replacing opening a new set of problems replace the pipe ( abs, cast iron who knows what lol)

Why measure the distance from the toilet to the flange? The video does not say why this is done.
