As someone who didn't know what JPEG XL was before reading this, it sounded to me like some specialized file format for huge images. Ironically, this would lead me to the right choice of file type if I had a large image.
I do admit, though, that if I saw a folder full of .jpeg and .jpegxl files before reading this, I'd expect the .jpegxl ones to be larger on average. Or if someone said "should I send you the .jpeg or the .jpegxl" and I was low on disk space, I'd find it plausible to say "hmm, no reason to send the large version, the jpeg should be fine".
