I think I must be missing something
My interpretation of that video was that the person was on guard, alert and aware of their situation.
They avoided the accident by way of reactive, controlled maneuvering around the accident - NOT simply stomping the brake Pedal???
I think trying to emergency stop in that particular situation would have landed that driver right into the accident or get hit from behind.

I have always told my wife(she gets nervous as a passenger in traffic) that I feel the safest driving my Boxster for all the control it delivers.

My biggest concern is hard emergency Braking. Not that I can't stop soon enough BUT that the Boxster can slow and stop so good that I will get hit from behind
