From movfuscator's FAQ [1]:

Q: Why did you make this? A: I thought it would be funny

Is the motivation of demovfuscator to be not funny?

My guess (I didn't downvote you) is that your post added nothing to the discussion. Joke posts tend to be frowned upon here.

For people wondering what movfuscation actually is and how it works: https://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~sd601/papers/mov.pdf

I know that capstone, keystone and unicorn are marketed to the "security community" but these projects are some of the most promising I've seen for programming in general, e.g., for the few people who still might want to write small, simple (and fast) programs that run on multiple architectures.

Great work.

(This project relies on keystone and capstone.)

I wonder how well it can work once you mix different variants of the movfuscator (using xor or load instead of mov etc).
