That is nice.

In my understanding the size of the xz compressed iso is only relevant
for downloading. So a matter of bandwith and your internet connection.

The extracted iso will be written on USB drives/DVDs/CDs, so their the
size matters and its good to see it shrinked down! So I don't see a real
problem here...
