I think that's a really really insightful take to be honest. Its interesting because I specifically remember before I stopped watching TJ Kirk/Amazing Atheist he kinda admitted that exact thing in a video. To paraphrase: he got tired of dunking on creationists and lampooning them because, basically, they "won"...or at least as much as they could in the purely online space. You basically couldn't make an creationist argument anywhere online without getting completely blown up and it had a boring stale circle jerk...and thus a new target was needed.
