If tiny quality was 1.0 bpp, low quality 1.5 bpp, and medium quality 2.5 bpp and high quality 4.0 bpp, JPEG XL would win in all categories.

In reality cameras produce about 3.5-4.5 bpp, and the internet uses an average of 2 bpp for photographs.



Realistically AVIF would mostly be used to reduce file size relative to JPEG, not increase quality.
