Pogoplank should be this. Normal Pogoplank isnt even on the right side. Someone should make an addon that changes it.

Believe it or not…I use my phone with either hand depending upon what I’m doing and where I’m at.

I didn't even finish watching the video. For a product demo video, they should have at least checked for glare, and adjusted the angle to compensate. :-\\

For practical, everyday use, the app launcher shouldn’t be the component that drains most of the battery …

For starters, why lead with a comparison to PogoPlank? Why not just lead with 'here's another interesting UI concept'? And if you're going to make comparisons, could they be somewhere in the neighborhood of at least half-baked?

You say: "it lacks of what a complete springboard-replacement should have: the combination of an impressive idea and hard work behind it". Which idea is more impressive is purely subjective of course, but where on earth does the hard work piece come from?

How do you claim to have any clue whatsoever which one has involved more hard work? In fact, even if we're going to make guesses on that, my guess goes to the one that is an actual app, an actual UI replacement on a real OS right now, not the one that is a pure concept, implemented nowhere as yet. One offers a short demo video, the other is real and usable now on the iPhone, and getting updated with bug fixes and new features regularly – and you deem that one the one that lacks hard work? Sorry, but how does that make any sense whatsover?
