Yep, this case depicts a guy who thought that Bitcoin fees were very cheap and said "Fuck it, fees are so cheap I’m going to spend 83 BTCs on fees just to prove to the world just how cheapsy they are …".

Exceptions aside, fees are indeed not above values seen in the past, but cost is probably best seen in comparison to the amount one wants to send. Clearly sending very small amounts of bitcoin, whilst within normal ranges for many to send, do encounter nowadays high fees compared to the base amount being sent. Fees on TXs that send higher amounts are relatively smaller compared to the base amount being sent, and thus are conceptually easier to digest.

For those who know why the fees are as they are nowadays, there’s also the added conceptual aggravation of fees having steepened not because of a natural set of circumstances like the 2017/2018 FOMO, but because of some abomination someone thought would be fun to base on the Bitcoin Network, flooding the mined blocks with Ordinal related TXs in ranges, as of late, between 40% and 70% of all mined TXs per day.
