Why is there no truly excellent animation being coming from Western studios today?

Death of cheap Korean / Japanese labor to outsource to like in the 90s?

Most animation is keyframe animation, what you posted is more difficult to do with keyframes and instead involves animating one frame after the other. It basically requires the same person doing the grunt work to also have creative control, rather than keyframe animation where you can delegate the inbetweening to less skilled laborers and not have to worry about them ruining the production.

but keyframe animation looks objectively better
