Great video and explanation. Love the split screen.
To pad this I add long vertical ‘satin’ stitches before adding this layer on top. I’m a bit surprised to see most use the outline/stem/chain outlining then padding with similar stitches.
Perhaps it’s the difference between embroidery and needlepoint methods?
I would think that method not only uses more thread/yarn but takes more time.
Any idea why that seems to be the preference in embroidery?
I frequently use embroidery stitches in needlepoint.

Yes that technique is called 'Tramming' Ann (tram lines I guess!). On canvas you have the holes to keep the edges neat, on other embroidery an outline edge to work the satin stitch over makes the edge neater

The embroidery is on stretcher bars and these are held with a versatile table clamp (I use two to keep it steady for filming but one will be fine!). These items are all available in my shop here (we ship worldwide with super fast dispatch):
