There's a difference between macro and strategy. MC's strategies during that period was pretty much shit, but his macro has never been bad.
And he fell when Protoss were having a really hard time.
Lol, people who think he can't macro, compare his stream to other protoss streams. There's a small but clear difference between him and someone like Huk or Hero. He seems to literally always have perfect timings on when a building is finished to then select it and start building out of it, never misses probe production, never gets supply blocked, and almost all buildings go down exactly when he has the money even on three base. There's a small but clear difference between his macro and many other protoss streamers, he's also very fast and precise in his movements.

If you scout only one bunker as a protoss, should you macro up and play into what your opponent wants? Seriously.

I love MC but that was pretty allin, he had 3 workers less than the terran and no tech. Why he choose a 5gate now and an 8gate in the previous game where he had like the same amount of workers is a complete mistery to me though ...
Because the second game was 1 gate FE, while the first was Nexus first (i. e. more economy earlier). Basically, in the first game, he was planning to go 6-gates, then added 2 gates to get the kill once he saw Ganzi losing his Marines. The idea behind the 8-gates is the same as the 4-gates—you can only fuel one or two Warp-ins cycles with all your Warpgates (at least Stalker-wise), but you get a scary army this way during this window, and you use it to kill your opponent.
