Well, this version has some elements that seem more correct than the official story. The idea that there was a 45 minute firefight before getting into the compound, and that OBL was still in his bed after that was always a bit suspect, IMO.
It seems far more likely that the team landed on the roof, and gained access quickly and dispatched OBL in a matter of minutes.
As to the claim that useful intel was minimized by the President wanting to quickly claim credit----that seems much less likely to me.
