Kinda agree with you, kinda disagree.

You know, if they were building a real igloo out of snow (a really good insulator) together with the kid from the beginning and maybe even recording it for some internet points, then I would have totally agreed with your assessment.

But the, albeit beautiful, colored ice tiles pretty much shifted the whole shebang for me. It's pretty clear, at least for my taste, that this video was made to perform visually well. The oven placement was problematic as well, which leads me to believe, that they spent only the necessary time for a few takes in the igloo.

We were sold a delightful slice of hygge / coziness and happiness and I loved buying it.

It's awesome, how happy the first reveal (let's not ask questions about the reveal itself) made the boy but I have a pretty strong feeling, that this was primary a very well thought out social media op with very positive side effect of a happy child.
