Except for the person who created FFmpeg in the first place. And
probably other people too.

Most great Libre Software projects are hackers playgrounds first. They
become immensely useful as a byproduct. There is a classical fable to
illustrate the shortsightedness of people who want FFmpeg to be a
Serious OpenSource Project TM, it's called The Goose that Laid the
Golden Eggs, I assume everybody knows how it ends.
