What is the correct order of steps
#7
1. avi is a container and does not influence whether the video format is lossless or not (same for mov, mp4, mkv,..)
2. ProRes is a lossy video format. It is/was marketed as 'visually lossless' but it is lossy. Usually it's used if it's the only not 'highly' lossy and fast format that your tool chain supports.
3. the avi container usually also is only used when the tool chain requires it and usually only if your have vfw decoders for the format in your system.

Hybrid does support multiple lossless video formats:
1. FFV1
2. FFvHuff
3. UT Video
4. H.264 lossless
5. AV1 lossless
Hybrid also supports some 'intermediate' formats, which usually used as 'visually lossless' when using high data rates.
1. ProRes
2. DNxHD
3. Cineform HD

So unless your tool chain requires avi as a container or ProRes as a videoformat (and mov as a container), I would use neither of these.

Ps.: Yes, all these formats require way higher bit rates than a lossly alternative. If you come from a highly compressed format like av1, mpeg-4 asp/avc/hevc/.., vc1, mpeg-2,... the differences can be really high.
