I suspect Robert wrote it that way intentionally --- but if so,
I agree it could do with more than zero commentary.

I think it's fine the way it's written. If we made that change, then
we'd have a comma for gzip and not for the other two algorithms. Also,
I'm just moving that sentence, so any change that there is to be made

Should zstd's negative compression levels be supported here ?
Here's a POC patch which is enough to play with it.
