If this QP + arbitrary options toggling is true, then WTF I don't even. After all these years of proper methods being discussed and after their inclusion in AOM which should give them more expertise in this, they should know better.

I would start to suspect actual malice here (marketing/PR deciding the results here?). Because they are really jumping through hoops here to not use the encoders in a way they are supposed with that QP bullshit.
