They rarely meaningfully increase the size though. Typical compression algorithms, when faced with hard to compress sections, can add a handful of bits to wrap them up. Total overhead a fraction of a percent.
When QOI encounters noisy pixels, it has to spend an extra byte per pixel, inflating the file by 33%.
