Google has been acting even stupider than usual lately, but snubbing JXL goes beyond stupidity - it's clearly malicious, it must be, otherwise I really can't even fathom the rationale behind such a moronic decision may ever be.

> I really can't even fathom the rationale

If you take into account that jxl was and is in large part an effort supported internally by Google teams, and fought against by another, a fairly occam's razor like explanation is that someone at Google with influence is deeply butthurt because another team built a better toaster.
