Actually, the uploader is apparently Costa Rican. And besides, the description of the video has the proper names.
So yeah, I have no idea.
Maybe for it to not be lost in the sea of similarily named videos.
Or the uploader is a weaboo.
But do they have to prove their weeabooness by using a double transcription of the class names?
I mean, really?
If he were a weaboo he wouldn't bother with explaining on the description what the transliterations are supposed to mean. At least I don't think.
Watched the rest of that video.
As usual for the FS anime stuff, the combat has a great sense of timing and weight. It's thoroughly entertaining, accurate or not, and that's really the most important thing from a general perspective.
There's some marginal accuracy in that video concerning the "special techniques", except that said techniques are actually very basic. To void an enemy's attack and strike in the same moment is basic to all strong forms of swordsmanship. Saber reminds me more of a kendoka than any knight, though, given her emphasis on the void-and-attack, plus her stance and the armoured dress.
Its accuracy isn't particularly notable, but then again, the lip service it pays makes it better than most fight scenes in that respect. The Nasuverse anime fight scenes are always really good from a general dramatic perspective, though, which is really what counts. In general, the sense of time and weight contributes more than the accuracy of the technique. I suppose one of the issues with accuracy in this context is that if two demi-spiritual beings like Servants were to go at it with great technique, no-one would be able to follow what's going on because of all the single-time techniques and the crossover between spear, sword and staff techniques.
The bottom line is that it's an awesome fight scene, but not because it's accurate. It's simply fun and exciting to watch, and its points of accuracy are more like a combination of lip service and assurance that a general audience will be able to follow the technique.
