I see both sides of this. It reminds me of the debate between traditional martial arts styles and contemporary, some would say more practical, "street" styles. Bottom line, neither is wrong, and the true master of the art will take what he needs from both and develop his own style that is superior to both. The same holds true for gunfighting.

But the person asking the question starting this thread simply wanted to learn some basic skills, and specifically to know which grip was best. The answer, I think, is clear: try both and stick with what works best for you. Personally, I thought that video showed the best way to hold the pistol, but experiment, and if you find another way that works better for you, USE IT! And tell us about it as well.
