If it’s compressed, or has artifacts, it will look pixilated. I work with lots of 4K footage and see this stuff often, especially if I export with a low bit rate. They would look like boxes, “pixelated”. The top of your head doesn’t disappear. Your hands don’t look super imposed over microphones. Green screen is the only way you get these errors.

What's the purpose of manually cutting out Biden's hand from a supposedly non green screen footage, and then also cutting out the microphone manually (because no greenscreen) and then smooshing them together?
That theory is a non starter.
Presumably Biden was cut out of a bad background. Maybe he was then put into the same background shot from a different angle/distance. Hence the booms looking like they're waist height and wrong scale, depth, etc.
It's basically the same as greenscreen, you just use greenscreen to make it easier to comp elements. The mistakes here are evidence that they weren't greenscreening because it's so crappy.
Whenever we shoot in my job we always shoot plates - the scene but empty - so that absolutely everything we shoot can be removed in the edit.
But this wasnt a controlled shoot, it was random and scrappy.
I now believe there was no greenscreen involved, but still plenty of motivation for trickery.
