I associate it with google, and I have associated google with bad and untrustworthy. Also google's hostility towards jpeg xl makes me even more apprehensive of their format and the way they tried to push it so hard.

Also jpeg XL is just much better than webp.

Google is not hostile to JPEG XL.

Google Research develops and maintains JPEG XL, currently main focus on improving streaming encoding -- to use much less memory during the encoding process.

Google Chrome added and then removed experimental support of JPEG XL from Chrome. This has caused discussion in the related bugs.
