They request formats that their equipment handles. They're not in the business of converting a user's file type from one to another. That would be inconsistent from what the user sent.
Here's who I order from, you can see the particulars of what they request.

Their job is getting an image file into reality, not to be the absent owner of a big machine.

If the machine accepts some type of normal image file, then they can losslessly convert other file formats to that type. There is nothing inconsistent about that.
You're free to make such assumptions.
What are you calling an assumption?
My first statement is an opinion/judgement, not an assumption.
I'm confident my second statement is true. Note that any argument that says niche formats are a problem because color space might be ambiguous also applies to the formats they do accept.
