Bitcoin Payments with "very low fees"

Just came across a video from Niklas Nikolajsen (Bitcoin Suisse) how he used bitcoin to pay for goods and services.

And the claim at the end of the video was: "bitcoin spent on a wide range of goods and services, with very low fees ...", which got me interested. Here is the video itself: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PPfBHQE99uc

I got interested what "low" means and went over all payments in the video:

Let's assume the fees for the non-identified payments are $4. Total during the day: - 11 payments - Total miner fees paid: $47.2

This sounds like an amount someone can live on for 1 month. It is great bitcoin made people rich, but pretending that it is usable as a payment is ridiculous.

Merry Christmas to everyone and enjoy "very low fees"!!
