I suppose using a term that colloquially means "black magic" might be a little (skin) tone deaf in this context, but I think it was intended as a positive thing

I suppose using a term that colloquially means "black magic" might be a little (skin) tone deaf in this context, but I think it was intended as a positive thing. As in "what kind of magic is JPEG XL using to be better, and what is everyone else doing wrong?" I admit the wording is kind of ambiguous though
