I personally think something like the qok format is a better way to go. Make something that performs well and is dirt simple to implement.

No it would not, qoi falls behind even my 2011 WebP lossless design.

Also, it is not a competition for the shortest specification. If it was, still good. Jpeg xl spec is about half the size of the original jpeg spec.

QOI supports a VERY limited set of use cases compared to jpegXL.

QOI is cute as an experiment, but it is not a serious image format unless you work in extremely constrained environments.
