I do like SKF stuff, but I have to call shite on that video. Unsprung, unloaded forks are hardly a unit of measure for stiction.
It's like when people run new bearings and note how 'sticky' they area by moving a crank-set by hand.

Spot on mate, the real stiction issues are when the bike is loaded up on the brakes or on it's ear.
My only observation on fork seals, having tried most OEM and el cheapo aftermarket ones is the newer they are, the better. OEM stuff that's been sat on the shelf for a decade can get a bit brittle.
