I don't know Quranic Arabic and, despite the whole tajwid thing, history is not on the side of those that assume languages are static and do not change with time or perhaps take on different interpretations or psychological implications. I could do it in English but apparently that is not the done thing, and having seen what can happen in translation in all aspects then that is not an unreasonable position to hold as an hard line for a final call. Speaking of different interpretations there are quite a few of them for Islam and with it the Quran, it might be others left the true path and it was Sufism all along but that is always a fun debate to have.
This guy seems to know it though, or at least he does things in English and Arabic, so I will go with linking him up for now

Infallible source? Absolutely not, though I would hold nothing is. Is he perhaps a bit quick to dismiss things in other videos? Having not grown up in or observed intensely I am not inclined to say but again perhaps. None of that however makes me inclined to not at least consider what is put forth there.
Yeah, theyre all misinterpretations of words.

He makes a little too many assumptions for me to consider his viewpoint viable. Did you just take videos from no where?
