Yes, I agree with you in essence. I don't agree that it's pointless, though; I believe there exists some merit to it. The point of the comparison was more about a quick and dirty quick example with the compression implementation and settings used by GyfCat, which was a quick way to convert the GIF. There are obvious flaws in this approach. Many flaws, in fact. However, even with those flaws, it demonstrated my point (that the GIF sucks) as far as I'm concerned. More optimal settings and all sorts of possibilities for alternatives should be explored. But, I will leave that to someone else because that is outside of the intended scope of my intent for this comment.
