Want to quickly point out that this whole thing was probably prompted by LTT's Lab folks (who's responsible for testing I guess), publicly name-dropping Gamers Nexus when comparing how their own testing methodology was seemingly better.

Yeah, most of the answers here seem to miss that part. The LMG lab tech also called out Hardware Unboxed, who responded via Twitter, got flamed by Linus's fans, and that was the end of it. But it sounds like Gamers Nexus was already sick of LMG's shit and that clip was the last straw.
