In a way it does because his footwork is very versatile. As others have said before his footwork serves a purpose. He’s able to use his fast feet to either pressure or stick and move to avoid punches. If he didn’t have that creative footwork he wouldn’t be as dominant. Different strokes for different folks. I agree, i just have the POV of simpler could be seen as better. The way he moves his feet is beautiful, but its busier. I just think the approach leaves room for people to critique it

Yeah but does it mean better? I don't think that it makes it better, just amazing when done right. In a way it does because his footwork is very versatile.
