Maybe I'm just not understanding what you're getting at here, but I feel like you're massively underselling this.
Not only can one learn lessons via observation and listening to what others have to say, but that is something that is every bit as important as learning things the hard way. It emphasizes Takeru's' empathy, his ability to take in the feelings of those around him, and shows that he has a good head on his shoulders.
Not only is learning via the example of others important, but it's smart. So to say it's hollow, that it's not impactful, that just doesn't sit right with me. Heck, it's a skill that I wish more people would learn.
Anyway, I love this movie. The action is great, the celebration of both the first Kamen Rider and the franchise as a whole was wonderfully done, and the emotions that the movie was trying to convey really did reach me at many points. Even as someone who's yet to see all of KR-1 or even finish its manga, I got the idea, and the movie did well on selling me with his relationship with Mayu.
Probably my favorite anniversary movie up until Super Hero Chronicles came along and stole that spot.
