Help with Futurama Telecine

[protectron]

I've been doing some digging and came across this thread on the topic from 10 years ago. It references a script from another thread from 20 years ago.
https://forum.doom9.net/showthread.php?t=172258

Regardless of age the users claim it works well enough.
Is there a filter that can effectively accomplish this bit of code at the beginning of the script? I would hope that there would be some advances in the last 10-20 years.

Function FieldMatch(Clip C) {
  Global PP = C.DuplicateFrame(0)
  Global CC = C
  Global NN = C.DeleteFrame(0)
  P2 = PP.SeparateFields()
  C2 = CC.SeparateFields()
  N2 = NN.SeparateFields()
  Global PC = Interleave(P2.SelectEven(),C2.SelectOdd()).Weave()
  Global CP = Interleave(C2.SelectEven(),P2.SelectOdd()).Weave()
  Global CN = Interleave(C2.SelectEven(),N2.SelectOdd()).Weave()
  Global NC = Interleave(N2.SelectEven(),C2.SelectOdd()).Weave()
  Global Deint = QTGMC(CC).SelectEven()
  Return ScriptClip(CC, \
    "!CC.IsCombedTIVTC(CThresh=12,Chroma=True,BlockX=16,BlockY=32) ? CC : " + \
    "!NN.IsCombedTIVTC(CThresh=12,Chroma=True,BlockX=16,BlockY=32) ? NN : " + \
    "!CN.IsCombedTIVTC(CThresh=12,Chroma=True,BlockX=16,BlockY=32) ? CN : " + \
    "!NC.IsCombedTIVTC(CThresh=12,Chroma=True,BlockX=16,BlockY=32) ? NC : " + \
    "!PP.IsCombedTIVTC(CThresh=12,Chroma=True,BlockX=16,BlockY=32) ? PP : " + \
    "!CP.IsCombedTIVTC(CThresh=12,Chroma=True,BlockX=16,BlockY=32) ? CP : " + \
    "!PC.IsCombedTIVTC(CThresh=12,Chroma=True,BlockX=16,BlockY=32) ? PC : Deint")
}
TFM(Order=-1,Mode=5,PP=2,Clip2=FieldMatch(),Slow=2,MChroma=False,Ubsco=False,CThresh=12,Chroma=True)
TDecimate(Mode=1)

Hey, you're in this one!

Haven't seen someone porting this to Vapoursynth. It's a custom solution for a specific clip so it's usually not worth the effort.
