It does look as if the guiding principles of Great British Railways
include making life harder for passengers in every possible way. There
have been rumours that delay repay will start with a 30 minute delay for
all companies, no doubt they can call that "levelling up".

I wouldn?t be surprised if Delay Repay slowly withered away. Was it even a thing in the days of BR?

From what I recall, it was introduced by the Major government both to keep the new private TOCs on their toes and to sell privatisation to the public. Those early TOCs had a lot of freedom, and it was feared that some might sweat their resources too hard.

The EU rules for delay repay stat at 1 hour; i'd be surprised if they
