Messing with this in devtools used for building official repo packages kills reproducible builds when not agreed on very specific flags and tools to compress. This is not a good idea to do and we won't kill reproducibility by going wild west.
True, sad but valid point. I've just confirmed that pixz produces different results when run twice on the same data, so I can't even propose to just switch the default to pixz without breaking reproducible builds :( Thanks for the quick feedback! -- Maxim Baz
