The three Nokian tires are not compared against each other in the video. The numbers from different tests are not necessarily comparable. . . as I noted earlier, the shadows seem to indicate different times. It's interesting to note that according to one of the tests, Nokian all season (WR) actually came out better in the stopping test than a competitor's "premium winter tire."
Tirerack doesn't compare Nokian because they do not sell it. However, they sell both studdable and studless winter tires from numerous manufacturers. There doesn't seem to be much of an incentive for them to promote studless winter tires over studdable winter tires . . . at least not as much incentive as Nokian has in promoting how their tires are superior to other manufacturers.
