As you might notice, CRF 14 is now ridiculous overkill; you don't need such a low value for any sane purpose. IMO the new scale is much much better; there probably no longer exist sources for which one "needs" CRF14 to achieve transparency, for example.
Not more simple to use always quant at N in average for Pframe if you use crf N ?
