It's clear he's not listing all levels with water, just ones where the primary gimmick is water. Though I personally wish he didn't try to seriously say the Sonic Advance and Rush series weren't "mainline" and let Sonic 4 ep 1 and 2 just be a "joke" to avoid putting in more effort in the video. It's kind of little stuff like that that say "Yeah it's funny, but it's also a waste of our time.... you're either offering a unique perspective, or you're assuming we're laughing when we're not." I hate when people do that. It's just too easy to say "I don't even have to talk about this game, csue everyone knows it sucks. moving on" Well then why are we even watching the video?

Starlight Carnival is the low point of Colors. It's the only level where they didn't split its two acts into separate stages to pad out the runtime, and it shows with its 4 mission-like levels. (Conversely, Sweet Mountain is arguably the highlight because both of its acts were split up.) Aquarium Park has genuinely enjoyable underwater sections thanks to the Drill Wisp.

Shoutouts to Sabrina DiDuro for designing some amazing water levels in the _Freedom Planet_ series like Jade Creek! It helps that the _Freedom Planet_ games have amazing swimming mechanics that don't hinder the player's speed at all, and allow them to still use their full move set! I'm also going to point out that a lot of other _Sonic_ characters actually do know how to swim! (If the Olympic Games series is to go by.) Surprising examples include Shadow, Silver, Blaze, and Metal Sonic. (Though, Shadow somehow forgot how to swim in _Shadow Generations,_ but that doesn't matter because water isn't a relevant obstacle in the actual levels until right after he unlocks Doom Surf.) At the same time, I don't mind the fact that Sonic can't swim. It provides a pretty good weakness that other characters can cover for him, like how Tails can help carry him underwater back in _Sonic 4: Episode II._ Plus, it can lead to other interesting stage routes that are only accessible to characters who can swim. (Besides, I'm pretty sure that Sonic actually isn't afraid of water, just drowning. This makes even more sense when you remember that Final Dreadnaught Act 2 has Lord Brevon shut off the oxygen, forcing the player to traverse the stage with the threat of a depleting oxygen meter while they are on dry land.) It's just that the _Freedom Planet_ series has proved that it's possible to design an amazing water level in a Sonic-like game, and that Sonic Team should take notes from those games when designing water levels and swimming mechanics for their _Sonic_ games.
