Okay, why would someone prefer this?

It's based on mpv. VLC isn't.

Ultimately, the real comparison is here is just ffmpeg vs ffmpeg, but some people prefer mpv defaults over VLC. Search and you'll find many many comparisons of the two.

Basically a video player that's pretty much on par with VLC, except it has a super barebones UI and is meant to have other UIs built around it
