and not attacking) Refs would never call that in a normal situation. I watched it a few times, cant even determine if it was a travel.

packed crowds, for most of us who aren't MAGA, are currently a thing of the past.
Unless you're trolling or just straight up obtuse, it's not at all hard to grasp how or why someone would see packed crowds as "jarring" after a year of this shit.

I guess its perspective, f you haven't watched any sports clips more than a year old in the past year I guess it could be jarring. I watch a lot of sports clips every day so seeing near empty stands at current events is more jarring.

... so that's exactly it. If you spend a lot of time watching sports clips then it stands to reason why you wouldn't see it the same way. Only sports I've seen have been in empty NBA or NCAA basketball stadiums and 7,000-fans-or-less NFL stadiums, basically.
So seeing that clip, probably one of probably 3 old clips I've seen since like last summer, is jarring and makes me feel sort of claustrophobic for the players lol. Feels like the fans are right on top of them, and eachother. And that's in addition to the "holy shit remember when we could be that close to eachother" thing haha.

the last live sporting event I went to was OKC/Golden State, in 2019. I remember meeting up with some folks at halftime...the stadium was fuckin packed, we were laughing and dapping up in the midst of shoulder to shoulder human beings. Shit will never happen quite like that, again.
