essentially a marginal speed increase they think on json, but a much bigger speed increase (5x-100x they claim) if you switch to their native format ZNG.

if I'm switching formats completely, I'm not sure why I care about jq vs zq in json performance ...

Marginally faster is better than marginally slower, at least. I agree the JSON use is probably more compelling than their ZNG thing.

considering how much data I can already get via json (or converted to json via other json related standards such as geojson), there doesn't seem to be much of a compelling case to use ZNG.

I'd love to hear different though!
