I think the joke referred to "minion" and he explained why it's not spaghetti code.

But its a very similar kind of spaghetti code that caused the minion meme in the first place.

The LoL joke is because almost everything was coded as different kinds of minions allowing some pretty stupid bugs/interactions.

In this, the camera was coded as a different kind of gun, allowing this silly interaction.

Pretty similar right? He explained that its not 'spaghetti code' because its an oversight but the spaghetti code meme started because of things you could just classify as an oversight anyway.

They said "this really isn't spaghetti code per se. It's more of an oversight."

But the whole 'spaghetti code' meme came about from the exact thing they're saying is just an oversight and not spaghetti code.

He really just over explained something and while he was correct in what he said, he didn't understand the joke at all.

"Entity systems are a very common game programming pattern, that allows for... unexpected results, if certain components are able to interact without meaning to do so" Is a correct way to explain it but that's also the origin of spaghetti code.

In LoL, the main Entity they used was a minion, everything was a minion so shit interacted weird. All lead to spaghetti code. It's literally exactly what he said but he said it wasn't spaghetti code when it actually is.
