The example image only shows the differences between parts of the image that are deemed as salient, but does not show the effects of the tradeoff on the non-salient parts nor does it show an entire quantized image.

I'd say that showing full example results are the most important part of showcasing a "high end" color quantizer.

Yeah, good point. I'll definitely add an image showing the saliency map tradeoff.

Regarding full examples, because some other projects seem to have cherry picked cases where they perform very well, I wanted to go for a "try it out yourself" approach, at least for now. Maybe in the future I'll add a proper showcase. Thanks for the feedback :)

take a look at my demo [1]. i'd love to see the same set of images quantized with your thing.

the quant frog [2] is interesting since it has an artificial single pixel line at the top with a ton of colors to trip quantizers up.
