AVFoundation: Compression property Quality is not supported for video codec type avc1

I think I'm looking for a way to check if a video settings key is valid, so I can exclude it if it isn't. But I'm more curious why some keys are valid sometimes, inconsistently. Let me explain.

With my macOS app, I'm trying to write a video with compression quality set, like so

 let videoWriter = AVAssetWriterInput(
			mediaType: .video,
			outputSettings:
				[
					AVVideoWidthKey: 1000,
					AVVideoHeightKey: 1000,
					AVVideoCodecKey: AVVideoCodecType.h264,
					AVVideoCompressionPropertiesKey: [
						AVVideoQualityKey: 0.4
					]
				]
		)

It works on my M1Max (13.4, 13.5), Intel Mac (12.0.1), but for one (for now?) of my users (on 13.5/Intel, Macbook16,1) this line throws an exception and crashes the app.

This is the output

*** -[AVAssetWriterInput initWithMediaType:outputSettings:sourceFormatHint:] 
Compression property Quality is not supported for video codec type avc1

Reproducing sample app

This tiny app reproduces the crash for my user (but still, not for me) https://github.com/mortenjust/CompressionCrashTest/blob/main/CompressionCrashTest/ContentView.swift

What I tried

I tried looking into catching objc exceptions (from AV Foundation) with Swift via a wrapper, but it looks like it's a bad idea, and not recommended by Apple.

I also tried changing the codec to .hevc and that also crashes, saying that Quality is not a supported key.

I tried asking my user to reboot, no effect.

I tried exporting a video with compression quality 0.1 on my Mac to verify that it's a valid key, and the output video was compressed, small file size and visually distorted.

I tried upgrading from 13.4 to 13.5 to match his specs, but it still doesn't crash for me.

I really wish there was a way to validate a video settings dictionary without crashing.

I found AVCaptureMovieFileOutput / supportedOutputSettingsKeys(for:) that vaguely resembles what I need, but it's made for recording from a camera.
