OK, I agree - it is a tweaked VP9, but that doesn't mean anything. Why start from scratch when you can take a proven stable baseline and "tweak" that.

I (still) don't understand your point - that is exactly what they do now. PVQ, daala EC and deringing filter is what worked good in daala and they are integrating it into AV1. Same with CLPF from thor and things like rANS in VP10. However you can't do this overnight.. it is still a lot of work.
