But that is part of my point.

The entire reason different modes or scale sound different from each other, the reason we have different names for each of them is precisely because of the intervals, the scale degrees.

The way the musical alphabet letters are displayed, neatly written out in a shifting pattern is a handy way to see how the modes are the same group of notes but shifted around.

But it doesn't show you the most important part: the intervals.

Why does Ionian sound different from dorian? From Phrygian, and so on? What if you have to play in a key other than C major?

Playing the fretboard patterns of the modes on the guitar helps you see the intervals, the distances between the scale degrees while you are hearing the sound is the optimal way of learn, practicing & thinking about modes.

That video is a good supplement to your studying! But do not neglect the playing & sound. :)

Hope this helps!
