IMO Zarr is that newer format. It abstracts over the features of all these other formats so neatly that it can literally subsume them.

I feel that we no longer really need TIFF etc. - for scientific use cases in the cloud Zarr is all that's needed going forwards. The other file formats become just archival blobs that either are converted to Zarr or pointed at by virtual Zarr stores.
