That might be beneficial when you are actually engaged in live combat against a peer or near-peer where combat attrition and replacements is a major factor, in the peacetime, there is a lot of value in getting your best and brightest together so they can challenge and inspire each other.

The purpose of these elite units is more to help write the playbook and develop new tactics and strategies rather than to just have one super elite unit of ‘aces’. These units are basically going to be the instructors of the Chinese Top Gun, where they will play opfor against regular PLAAF and PLANAF regiments to kick their butts and then show them how it was done.

I have no issue with having more elite units whose role is to write the book and develop tactics and strategies -- however that should be the role of units at CZ and DX.

That video showed a frontline combat air brigade, 9th brigade.
Their job shouldn't be to be above the other units in developing and proliferating new tactics and training other units, their job should be conducting regular day to day operations.

That's why I have a feeling they are hamming it up a little bit for the camera.
