I think it's a monetization issue. OpenAI needs to optimize it's revenue per compute. The slop videos take a ton of compute and the users won't spend much on them.
In contrast if they can give Disney a tool with more precise control it's worth a lot to Disney.
Look at a movie like American Sniper. It has a scene where Bradley Cooper is holding an obvious doll because the baby was acting up on set. Afterwards they decided that the expense, delays, an quality issues of fixing the scene with CGI didn't make sense.
If they could have spent $500k in tokens to fix the scene they would have.
Giving directors and editors a tool to tweak things has a lot of value.
