Each knife sharpens differently, that is why I said follow the bevels on yours.
The videos are meant to show technique more than explaining what 70/30 is and whether it should be 60/40 instead. In time you will figure out what angles work best for you and the knives, and it will not matter what exactly the numbers are, it will be irrelevant. Just look at how the knife is held how to move it on the stone , the rest you will figure out with practice.
