   Why not use x265?

      Some clients only take H264, depends on what you're delivering to. Often for web media you end up having to serve [h264, h265, av1], which is a real pain

      Often the increased encoding cost does pay for the reduced bandwidth cost. And that assumes you can navigate and afford the HEVC license.
