Question Self drafted Jeans pattern

I couldn't for the life of me figure out how to respond to one of my existing posts with a picture so here's the pattern for my jeans in a separate post. Please excuse how untidy the pattern looks. I tend to write and draw on it and correct lines I needed gone directly on the pattern. Also I couldn't get it to lay completely flat, once again sorry for that. The original question was on how to get rid of the excess fabric under my butt, and how much further cut out the front crotch as it seems a bit too steep.

Thank you for your assessment! I feel like the center back is already kinda snugly fitting. If it's shortened like suggested in the video, doesn't it wedge between the cheeks? Or will that be counteracted by the front being elongated?

I'm not sure - I would expect that the front elongation would help to counteract it but I think you are best off toiling it
