Interesting read about the performance claims not adding up, I got the initial impression that it was some big advance in efficiency over CABAC with less complexity.

As you say it pays to read up on these things, and yes I always did get Monty's impression that Google's patent filing was specifically a pre-emptive protection against patent trolling over AV1, as indeed alot of AOMedia's mandate was during AV1s initial development.
