DR-161 flipped experimentalNativeVideo on by default so picture-in-picture could shrink a real video surface. On a device that shipped sound with a blank screen. The decode path was never at fault. Logcat shows ExoPlayer running and feeding a live SurfaceView with an active BufferQueue. The compositing was: the SurfaceView sits behind the WebView, and the step that clears the opaque layers above it never took effect — `WebView transparent = false` is logged, `= true` never appears. The video was rendering correctly the whole time, behind an opaque page. This is precisely the defect the flag existed to contain; VideoPlayer.scrubRegression.test.ts had already recorded that "the native SurfaceView has never been visible through the webview". Enabling it by default shipped a verified decode path on top of an unverified display path. Reverting costs nothing that matters: PiP does not depend on it — DR-160 drives PiP from the WebView <video> — and working video outranks PiP showing a native surface. The flag stays in Settings, now described as incomplete rather than as a performance win, so anyone helping test it still can. Fixing the compositing is the prerequisite for trying this default again (DR-172).
