>That is exactly what this new Pixel mode does. In actual results the P20 Pro is better.
I'm not the person you've been talking to, but I don't think I'd agree with that statement. To take the video you linked earlier for example, the Pixel frequently gives better results. For example, this one shot https://youtu.be/wBKHnKkNSyw?t=227
Note that the Pixel 2 has a much smaller sensor, and the exposure time on the P20 is 18 times longer, and yet the Pixel generates a much better sharper image. What you're saying is correct, that the P20 is using some very advanced image stabilization to get results that good from 6 seconds of data, but the Pixel seems to clearly offer more advanced software.
