I disagree: I think it was somewhat warranted. The fact the end-result looks similar to the faked result is beside the point.
Many countries, the US included, have decided that if you cannot fake product demos in advertising unless it is clear that's what's going on. Hence the "Sequences Shortened" text on the iPhone ads.
It is rather unethical to produce a marketing video that fakes functionality and doesn't make it clear that's what's going on. You may well not be over-exaggerating anything, but personally I don't think that's relevant.
