The clip from 2001 really woke up the trolls! It really is a match cut, but also a comment on the match cut. It plays with the syntax of the match cut that you explain so well: to eliminate time that doesn't advance the narrative, in that case the time of hominids using tools prior to 2001. It really moves the technique past narrative function into philosophical function. One of the millions of other match cuts in classical cinema would have been less controversial.

You've confused a "match cut" with an "insert edit" in your example following the match cut from 2001. The footage of your feet moving down the steps is inserted into the continuous take of you walking down the stairs. It's not a "match cut" because your feet do not match visually your "full form" coming down the stairs from the previous shot. A true match cut would show you coming down the stairs, then cutting to a different shot of another person or object moving in a similar way to you.

EXCELLENT video. You know, this video may look simple to 'advanced film students', but, it explained something important that some instructors in film schools have the inability or incompetency to express.
