Cyberpunk as a genre should never look hyper-real or clean. That defeats the point of what Cyberpunk is. It's Neo-Noir. High tech low life. Cyberpunk is like a high-tech version of 1970s NYC or 80s Detroit. Run down. Gritty. Gross. Miserable. Hyper stylized. That video is stupid.
Thematically these are more accurate.
