Of the people listed as the main authors of the JPEG XL spec on Wikipedia, I believe 2 out of 3 worked at Google. What's the "conflict of interest" you're talking about? AVIF? How is that their own format when JPEG XL isn't? If Apple, Mozilla and Microsoft wanted JPEG XL and committed to supporting it, I bet Chrome could be convinced to restore the support. But AFAIK those companies have made no such commitment, or even any kind of indication of intent. Why should we have another image format that gets only implemented in Chrome, not the wider web ecosystem? (Of course, they too are members of the foundation building AVIF. Oh my God, so many conflicts of interest!)
