I personally find the percussions a lot more interesting and fun than the melody here.

Took another listen and actually the melody isn't too complicated to incorporate both. I agree that I wouldn't omit the percussion for sure, it's interesting.

Regarding main melodies: my preference for that derived from my years of learning the piano. When playing a song with multiple melody lines, my piano teacher would always remind me of putting an emphasis on the main melody going on and not having the secondary melody (e.g. bass melody) get in the way. Clearly that's about proper representation of the song itself. I try to (often) apply the same thing to stepping, and the times I tend to see this ignored is with percussion-heavy music such as drum'n bass or breakcore. Definitely my bias, but I think it is fair to say that one should not lose sight of what the actual song is about.
