That option was needed.
Why was it removed?

The 'overwrite scan type' option does the same.
No functionality got lost. 'overwrite scan type' is basically a generalized version of the old selection you seem to miss.

Why does media info wrongly identify scan type?

The problem is not with MediaInfo, but with the source format.
Neither Huffyuv nor Lagarith have scan type flags.
Huffyuv either is 'interlaced' or 'progressive', it has no info about whether the source is tff, bff, field shifted, telecine,...
Lagarith has not even a flag to report whether the source is interlaced or progressive.
From what I see there isn't anything MediaInfo can do, since the info is not there.

So Hybrid for Lagarith, Hybrid always assumes progressive and for Huffyuv is assumes bff.

I'm not sure what it does with other lossless codecs but lags and Huff are the most popular codecs used for capture.

Then complain to the authors of those formats! It's neither MediaInfo nor Hybrids faults that those formats have not scan type info.
