As I often do, I disagree with Tyson, the model may help us understand the origin or nature of the universe someday. It's just a model, but when a model can be tested or studied in some way, we generally tend to learn new, grand things about everything.
It's not sensational, because it doesn't say anything radical, other than show a very similar relationship between information systems in event horizons and the way our whole universe can be modeled as an information system.
