It'd be great to see this done!  I've been wanting to see this for a while,
but haven't gotten anyone to do it.

One remark on that part of the video: the syllepsis gives the proof that
the "Brunerie number" is 1 or 2, but it doesn't immediately let you exclude
the possibility that it's 1.  I think my student Nachiket Karnick and I do
understand how to show that the number is 2 (with a much more direct
calculation than what's in the second half of Brunerie's thesis, but still
using the James construction).  I have an outline of an even more direct
proof, but the syllepsis is one of the calculations required to make this
more direct approach work.  Which is all to say that I'm very interested in
seeing this result, especially if it meant that related calculations of
similar difficulty could be done thereby giving much more direct
calculations of the small homotopy groups of spheres.

Best,

Noah
