when you play your Maj 6th/min 7th chords using frets 2233, for example, or when you play C M7th 5223, how are you stopping two strings with one/each finger? When I do that, my fingers have to be "flat" against the fingerboard, but your fingers look comfortably bent at each knuckle. ?
I wasn't able to hold 2 courses down at the same time at first either. Over time it has become easier. Due to much practice my fingertips have flattened out which has made this technique easier.

Nice video. Thanks for posting! You're mellow, easy to follow and your mandolin sounds really nice.
