Aside from how CinGG works, from what I understand YT recompresses the original video even if it is set similarly to the way they compress. In short, YT's compression goes over whatever settings we make, whatever programs we use (from https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/4603579?hl=en: "Note that YouTube always re-encodes videos to optimize their playback quality"). So compression on compression leads to banding. Ideally, you should start with a poorly or uncompressed original so that YT compression leads to better results (less banding). The downside is that a poorly compressed file (Prores, DNx, ...) is about 10 times larger than an h264...
I also read somewhere in comments you can trick YT into giving more bitrate for your vid if you pretend its HDR (so 10 bit + some metadata). Not sure if it still true ...
