Did RPDR Mock Voguing

During episode 11 of season 15 of RuPaul's Drag Race, the cast of queens were given a mini-challenge in which they were asked to celebrate the queer art form of voguing. Gravity Jacobs, who appeared on season one of HBO Max's Legendary, condemned the segment for ‘bastardizing' the art form without properly educating viewers on its history, or performing the moves correctly. Voguing originated from the New York ballroom scene of the 60s and the queer people of color who filled it. It was catapulted from subculture to mainstream by Madonna's Vogue in 1990, and by the film, Paris Is Burning the same year. Jacobs said, “Drag Race capitalizing off inaccurate narratives of vogue and ballroom is nothing new, but this one is about as blatant as they come.” Should artists stick to the original form? or Creative liberty for entertainment is possible? What is your view?
