Uh, what? The Hero's Journey is not prescriptive of anything, it's an attempt in comparative mythology studies to find commonality among myths in order to examine how different peoples cultures and religions handle parts of the model differently. Cambell wasnt the first to compare hero myths like this.

Different hero myths not precisely fitting the model is pretty much the point.

I haven't watched your whole video because it says part 1 and I don't like video essays (just give me a transcript), but your OP sounds like it starts at a false premise of the hero's journey model claiming some kind of sacred truth that it just does not.
