That otherwise it does not apply now.
I mentioned 2 requirements to be met, which one are you referring to?

Why is it הטמנה and not bishul? Because it's in a bag?
The two aren't contradictory.
בישול isn't assur unless it's מיחזי כמבשל בשבת or שמא יחתה בגחלים.
הטמנה בדבר המוסיף הבל is assur regarless.

אין הטמנה באוכלים so I guess the water in the Sous Vide may be considered אוכלין

Sous Vide is more of הטמנה than anything we would commonly do nowadays because you would need to cover the food directly with somebody that increases the heat and doesn't only retain the heat.

Say, wrap a blanket around a pot. But a blanket only retains heat, it doesn't increase the heat. (Still can be an issue, just not as big).

A Sous Vide, prima facie, would be akin to placing food under burning charcoal that increases the heat of the food, which is הטמנה בדבר המוסיף הבל

Correct, wrapping a blanket together with Sous vide could render it הטמנה בדבר המוסיף הבל.

Not if you put it in raw right before shabbos.
Fish? IIRC only meat that takes a while to cook, fish doesn't need more then 20 minutes

https://he.wikisource.org/wiki/משנה_ברורה_על_אורח_חיים_רנח

It appears the Mishna Berura doesn't consider hot water to be אוכלים for this purpose (although he's talking about a different scenario). I think other Achronim may disagree, but it can def be a real issue.

You're missing the point. Putting the fish/chicken in the hot water is הטמנה. The hot water is like a blanket to the food.

Most scenarios of placing food on a hot plate/oven, especially nowadays, are going be Chumros at best. Important Chumros, but Chumros.

הטמנה is a full blown איסור דרבנן

And how about putting the kugel wrapped in silver foil in the cholent pot?

איסורי דרבנן are in no way חומרות. They are גופי הלכות. Violating שהיה והטמנה sometimes even renders the food forbidden to eat.

חס ושלום. My point was that most cases are not שהיה מעיקר הדין and are only a problem because we are Machmir to be חושש for Rishonim the Shu’a / Rama Pasken against.

Which link?
It all depends what the reason of the covering is. Putting a bottle of baby formula entirely submerged in hot water surely is, while kugel in silver foil isn't (according to many poskim). The day will come when I'll start to use a Sous vide I'll need to figure out what purpose the bag serves and whether it's hatmanah even without being wrapped in a blanket.
