DiffuEraser claims better completeness and consistency than ProPainter; VACE offers masked editing on Wan2.1. Under camera motion, parallax and film grain, which method yields plates that can be graded and composited without visible flicker, and how should grain be restored?

Why this is still open: Authors' own comparisons only; no independent study on moving-camera plates was found.
