Except if it's lossless so there's no harm in reencoding to accurately clip files

You're confusing cause and effect. It's lossless because it cuts at keyframes and does not re-encode.

If it did what you're suggesting it wouldn't be lossless anymore.

Lossless codecs can be decoded and reencoded without effect

LosslessCut doesn't only use lossless codecs. It losslessly cuts video files encoded in lossy codecs.
