The single-threaded and multi-threaded compressors produce different output. Single-threaded compressor will give the smallest file size but only the output from the multi-threaded compressor can be decompressed using multiple threads.

Do we care about that difference? I don't believe we do, since we publish these files in the first place.

Doubt it. The difference in file size is tiny IME, and multithreaded compressed files can still be decompressed in single threaded mode.
