Thanks for the "encoder/decoder" correction.

But yes, as the other reply says, I am aware of this distinction, and I make a point not to use the word "codec" at any other point in the article. and explain in a lot of detail how much the encoder matters when it comes to encoding in some format. I mention the term to make people aware that it exists.

But, you're right, I will clarify this a bit more.
