You can say that you disagree with this being a "crew saving" call, but just because someone has it as such a call doesn't make it hyperbole. Saying it is hyperbole just detracts from whatever other points you were making.
And -- if it was correct, it was a crew saver, imo. Can't tell from the video (at least on my screen).
