FFMpeg: Replicating the "high quality" -preset results, without the preset option being available?

[Chipcraft]

Since the current FFMpeg master does not implement the "preset" option to toggle between the three different options (default, fast, high_quality), can the results of e.g., the "high_quality" mode be replicated by controlling the different options manually?

So, for instance, in case of upscaling, would it be sufficient to change the upscaler from "lanczos" (default) to "ewa_lanczossharp" and turning on "deband" to replicate the results of the "high_quality" -preset?
