> An encoding family requires a minimum set of resolutions to be made available before we can deliver a video. [...] For example, having one video with all of its VP9 lanes adds more value than 10 videos with incomplete (and therefore, undeliverable) VP9 lanes.

I don't see why this constraint is in place, you can absolutely serve video for certain-res users only with certain codecs (youtube certainly does this).
