Their dumb counter argument was AVIF, for the same reason as webp which is reduced total size since they're a massive cloud provider and want to penny pinch costs wherever possible.

JPEG-XL also has a progressive loading algorithm that increases the quality as you download instead of classic vertical scan loading, which is sick but I don't think any browser actually bothered to implement it yet after the Google hit job.

Hopefully will see it in action soon.
