This is a common pain point. Write in a language that makes sense for the project. Then people tell you that you should have used this other language, for reasons. Use a compression algo that makes sense for your data. Then people will tell you why you are stupid and should have used this other algo. My most recent memory of this was needing to compress specific long json strings to fit in Dynamo. I exhaustively tested every popular algo, and Brotli came out far ahead. But that didn't stop every passerby from telling me that zlib is better. It's rather exhausting at times...
