JPG compression results are hardly a good measuring metric of anything. Not only it's not meant for that, but also there are too many unknown variables. Not all encodings are created equal.

One can convert from raw (in SPP) to tiff to png. The conclusion would still support my argument, not yours.

More importantly since image processing is involved the results will tell even less about the image sensor itself, more about differences in processing the data.

Which is why I measure sharpness (MTF) in unprocessed raw images for the purpose of sensor comparison.

One can apply minimum processing in SPP before export.

Yes, I do that ... preferably just default settings.
