We really don't have enough disk formats in this space. Is this bringing something new ? Or is just polluting the namespace.

If only there was a whole post available so one could find out...
The post only benchmarks against UDIF. Whether this brings something new is a very good question that is not answered by the post.
How complex is the format? Did they do anything clever? Did they engage in NIH? For all I know they switched the AES mode and made the blocks bigger and that's the entirety of the performance boost.
