The name comes from the original tweak called YouTube Vanced after it got shut down. Vanced is Advanced without the Ad, which I thought was super clever.

The function I love is the thumbnail one, because I can't stand a lot of thumbnails on YouTube. Even my favourite channels have to do the stupid faces and the arrows for the algorithm. The patch changes it back to the frame in the midpoint of the video.
