It's only lossy when the decoder's dictionary doesn't have a similar volume of data points to properly reinflate the data stream. Things that didn't make sense to me as a teen make far too much sense now because my experience can properly contextualize the old data.

Kinda like those anime/retro game upscaling filters, except with way higher variance on what comes out between decoders, or the same decoder at different times. Gives me an idea for a new JPEG decoder with a floating ADC as input.
