Yeah, I don't think he's going to detransition. His career is 'trans activism', his income and social life depend on it. If he drops it, he'll lose absolutely everything. The only real harassment and bullying he got was from his own community, so he's already had a taste of what will befall him. I mean, is there a single high-profile detransitioner with a social media presence?
Hey, he changed his Youtube profile picture!

I mean it looks like that microphone is holding him at gunpoint, but it's better than the other fucking thing he had. Now he looks like a person creating Serious Content and not hosting scam giveaways on a Minecraft LP reupload channel.
Little victories.
They spent too much time on world-building and spectacle and ended up with a very silly and confused story, I think because they were intending to go for a trilogy right off the bat. The music, special effects and concepts are still very impressive. It's the kind of story that would have worked much better as a TV series, though the budget would be astronomical.
I don't think it's just because they trooned out that their work has suffered, I think it's because, like a lot of directors and shows who achieved groundbreaking special effects later made easier by CGI, they started trying to cram more and more ideas into a two hour runtime and you frequently end up with a thin story. The thing about the Matrix, even the later ones, was the stunts and special effects were part of telling the story.
