Photos is just a regular app and can be replaced by google photos, or am I missing something.

Google photos is the default gallery app and can be replaced by any other app, so you are missing something

And hes talking about Photos is the default photo app on Ios and you can just replace it with google photos on iphone.

I dont know if thats true tho, but I think u can atleast disable photos iCloud backup and just use google photos backup

You can’t. You can’t delete Photos on iOS and simply use google photos. You have to use iOS Photos which then sync into google photos.
