I suppose the strategy is that, if you know your expected data types and data structures pretty well, it's benefitial to apply delta encoding before general purpose compression, especially for simple RLE compressors. In graphics, delta

While this article excells on the technical aspects of the GIF format, it misses out on the significance of the GIF art renaissance of ca 2011 to 2014, which was most likely initiated by tumblr's arbitrary file size limits. Here is a p
