Yeah I am not sure what the difficulty is tbh, but I know nothing about codecs and media encoding.
The FR issue is here, by the way:

Thanks for the suggestion on Staxrip, I've given it a download!
No, I’m using an ADC modified for use with LD captures [0]. I did this because it’s cheaper in theory, although with the amount of time I’ve dumped into getting it working and keeping it working, the $500 or so for the Domesday Duplicator may well have been a better choice.

Its literally a feature of all the underlying encoders. And you can do it even with exotic ffmpeg/vapoursynth filter chains. So I can't imagine why.
TBH I would just recommend Staxrip if you are on Windows: https://github.com/staxrip/staxrip
There is a linux equivalent, I can't remember what its called.
Or maybe some av1an GUI for Mac/Linux. All of these things support a target file size with many more features.
