Good summary. Thanks. I've played around a bunch with JPEG XL and the lack of JPEG compression artifacts even at much smaller file size is amazing.

I imagine the result of this will be social media platforms and such will deliver higher quality images at the same filesize. Currently for local storage any image format is mostly fine, but for web services the image size becomes a massive cost which is why they compress your 8MB JPEG down to a 2 megapixel crunchy mess.
