Considering "jpeg" has become the shorthand for "digital picture", it would be a shame not to capitalise on it.

I feel like "jpeg" has generally become a shorthand for "low quality compressed digital picture"

In the photography world it's shorthand for "photo unedited straight from the camera". Popular with Fujifilm cameras especially due to their 'film simulation' modes which apply basically a filter to the image.

I think JPEG XL's naming was unfortunate. People want to associate new image formats with leanness, lightness, efficiency.

There was a constraint - since 2009, the Joint Photographic Experts Group had published JPEG XR, JPEG XT and JPEG XS, and they were probably reluctant to break that naming scheme. They're running out of good options, but I hope they stick with it long enough to release "JPEG XP" :-)

JPEG ME

Nobody can keep you from forking the spec and calling yours JPEG SM.

Support is not a boolean.

A proper test page should have HDR images, images testing if 10-bit gradients are posterised to 8-bit or displayed smoothly, etc...

iOS for example can show a JPEG XL image, but can't forward it in iMessage to someone else.

Not really? Unedited would be some sort of raw. JPEG usually implies preprocessed by the camera

I guess I meant unedited by the photographer manually (e.g. using Lightroom etc.)

Either that or a photo that has been edited from a RAW and is a final version to be posted online.
