The goal of a video codec is to precisely recreate the input image, and measure error metrics against an uncompressed input. I don't even see basic error metrics listed, but the visual fidelity is so noticeably terrible it would likely be absurdly off the charts.
I did a similar thing for the same motivation a while back (compress Khan Academy videos to a miniscule amount of data), and spent an hour or two on it. http://funny.computer/cloud/Endless/khanvx/player.html and came away thinking it would be exceptionally difficult to work in a general case, but it might be a small useful subset of a larger video codec.
This is not the first time people have tried to do vector video codecs, either. Remember the VSV project from University of Bath? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LKaixODJEmo
