Considering the prevalence of abusively named videos on YouTube, it would probably be worth having support for making lookups to the data source used by DeArrow and using the resulting titles (maybe including the originals within the description) when a URL parameter is provided. This would probably have an interesting interaction with #2, and necessitate having a feature that delays RSS feed entries either for a set amount of time, until an alternate title exists, until said alternate title has met some metric, or until a combination of such criteria is met.

The relevant sentences, for those who'd prefer to not open the link/don't want to use JavaScript (it's protected by Anubis):

If you end up using the API, I'd love to know about how you're using it. Tell me about it by making a GitHub issue or emailing me :)

As per the second and third sentences on https://wiki.sponsor.ajay.ap/w/API_Docs/DeArrow, you probably should email (or make a github issue) about the intent of this project/ask for a batch API so we aren't doing a lot of burst requests (this could especially be an issue on bigger channels, since I presume they have a very large RSS feed with a lot of videos).
