Exactly.
"Smoking is prohibited blah blah smoke detectors have been fitted" - fine, I don't smoke, never have, never will.
"This is how you put on a seatbelt" - we're already in our seats and the flight attendant has already checked.
"Put luggage in the overhead or under the seat in front of you" - we're already
seated
and the luggage has already been stowed - stop wasting time.
This goes double (triple) for international flights where it's repeated in a second and third language. Yeah, I understood all that from the video while you were doing it in Arabic (2 minutes 45), but heck, run it all again with English voiceover just in case.
