on 8:25 he says that if we need to change the color of the button we just need to define a new class. why? we already have a class 'btn' ,don't we just need to add the styles that we want?

I think Guil is just suggesting that you can get the best (most efficient) result from utilizing multiple classes on elements.
In this case, he's combining "btn default" and "btn error"
The btn class will have all the attributes the two inputs have in common, such as cursor: pointer, the default and error classes will have all the unique/distinct attributes that the two buttons do not have in common (what differentiates them), such as background-color. Does that make sense?
I hope that helps.
Stay safe and happy coding!
