I have not seen the video, but I can imagine how that it is weird. Francis was a football (soccer) fan, so I see how they continue the line
Leo spent a lot of time in Perú too and he has the double citizenship, so Peruvians are celebrating they have a Peruvian Pope.
Side comment, my native language is Spanish, so the Pope is called León XIV (León = lion). I always felt weird when I wrote Leo because it sounds so much like the nickname for someone called Leonardo, it is like the way you talk to a friend or family member, not the Head of the Church.
Back on track, yes, I think it was very strategic from Francis to name so many cardinals with a more progressive worldview (to a degree, of course).
