There are already 300+ image speaking imageboards and 200 something extra non-english IBs. I am quite sure that somewhere in that 300+ is a chan dedicated to creative shit or with a thriving creative section.
If you're going to make a new chan it better be running on good tech, you better do your homework, and it better be innovative or fresh in some capacity. Otherwise you'd be better off spending your time or money on an existing chan.

Let's not pretend that Steven Universe is the golden standard for what the west makes, and let's not pretend that every anime is Dragon Ball (and even then Dragon ball isn't exactly godlike every frame). I highly doubt you can name more than 2 cartoons that follow your theory of being greenlit by checking progressive boxes, and that's because it's not true. Most of the reason that the west doesn't have the best cartoons and comics anymore is because it had destroyed it's systems for allowing new talent into the industry. So most of the people that would be in cartoons are either doing art on social media, which does produce some really great shit, or have spun off and made Webcomics.
Part of the reason that western comics and cartoons aren't defining the medium is because America is focusing it's power on film. That and the fact that American studios are disorganized as fuck and interesting ideas either get killed by focus groups, no funding, or a lack of a real production team to make sure the Good Idea becomes a Good Show. America is leading the way on 3d animation both stylized and hyperrealistic, non-traditional media like stop-motion, and we used to be the gods of 2D.

AT isn't just bean mouths and noodle arms. Lich King and Prismo are perfect examples of AT doing unique things with its design. Also a good chunk of AT'S unique style lies in its fx and environmental designs.
Additionally SU isn't just weird character design. It can do some interesting things with environments and backgrounds.
