Isn't Apple ProRes exactly this? (I don't know codes well, this is an honest question.)

  No. ProRes is designed to be a good compression scheme for editing. That means it has to be designed in a way that make jumping to arbitrary frames and scrubbing very fast, as well as it needs to focus very hard on near-elimination of compression artifacts. In comparison compression systems designed for playback, like AV1, can have more occasional key-frames (points that you can easily jump to, then work your way to other frames), and it is more ok to have compression artifacts, especially ones that are just going to look like motion blurs when played back. So the compromises between features and size of the output stream are different.

  Codecs, not codes.
