As for low oxygen brewing, there’s something in it. German breweries have very expensive hydro mills that mill the grain under water to avoid malt oxidation.

But are they doing it for flavour benefit, or for more industrial/commercial concerns like shelf stability? That I don’t know.
 
Manufacturer says here: https://www.meura.com/products/hydromill.html

In order to improve the filterability of the mash and enhance the flavour stability of the beer, Meura developed the Hydromill. The Hydromill is a disc mill which consists of fine milling malt under water. This technology ensures perfect hydration of the starch and avoids oxidation.
