In one song I was learning, something about how I was playing the melody sounded wrong but many of the videos I checked, I was hitting all the right notes. So some of the stuff I've primarily learned by ear, using performances of the song to help fill in the gaps on what I just can't figure out, end up being ever so slightly wrong. The problem with doing this is, as you said, for some songs out there there's dozens of interpretations.
I always hit a point where I just can't figure out what that next note or chord is, so I look up a performance of it to watch their hands. In an ideal world you read sheet music and play by ear and improvise, but hey.

Plus it doesn't do super well showing multiple voices in one hand, though presumably you can change the colors to correspond. If you want to play classical or jazz, Synthesia is definitely not the way to go IMO. If you have difficulties playing the rhythm or ornamentation, a recording serves as well as a Synthesia video. Regarding fingering, though-it's highly personal, and what works for one person might not work for another because of different technique, physique, etc etc. but easier.) You don't get the form of the piece by watching the video, and the video itself, without audio, doesn't show articulation, expressive markings, etc.
(Arguably, it's the same for sheet music. Since it's not in static form, if you want to learn a particular section you'd have to look for it. The more intricate the piece, the harder to learn.
If you only use Synthesia, and can't read or play by ear, then you can only play songs that have Synthesia videos. Tl dr it's not bad per se, it's just limiting.
