Hey,

Apart from the telecine process damaging the image...

Yes, telecine damages the output image.

I assume you agree that a telecine that produces
20% combing @ 12Hz & no cadence (i.e., 5-5-5-5 pull-down in the raw frames)
is better than
40% combing @ 6Hz & 2-3-2-3 cadence (i.e., 4-6-4-6 pull-down by the TV).

...and the deinterlacer permanently ruining it?

Does a deinterlacer ruin the image? If the picture is progressive and if all 
the deinterlacer does is deinterlace?

But it appears that 'bwdif=mode=send_frame' is doing more than deinterlace. It 
appears to be decombing, even for the 8 of 10 frames that are not combed.

Even if that were true (which I have no idea to be honest) are you sure you’re 
not assuming a raw uncompressed source and no compression afterwards either?

Frames 3, 8, 13, 18, etc. are combed. The rest of the frames are progressive. The progressive frames display the effects of decombing.

The source is a 24fps progressive H.264 AVC video. I'm transcoding it to, among other test transcodes, 5-5-5-5 pull-down @ 60fps progressive, H.264 AVC. I'm not sure what you mean by "assuming a raw uncompressed source and no compression afterwards", but I hope I've responded appropriately.
