"I-frames are also known as key frames because their content is
independent of any other frames and they can be used as a reference for
other frames."

If "key frame" is simply another name for an I-frame, why are there two
names? pdr0 & Balling at trac.ffmpeg.org hint that key frames are
specific I-frames with specific methods but they don't elaborate and I
don't want to burden them.

I'd appreciate an explanation of 'key frame', or a link to an existing
explanation of course. All I can find is keyframe animation, which of
course is a technique, not an MPEG method.

Not sure whether this is any help, but it was suggested when I asked for
suggestions in another place for you.  Unfortunately, it costs though:
