Incompetence? JPEG files are smaller aren't they?

In a perfect world they would use a vector format for line drawings (the image file will be much smaller and you can zoom indefinitely), but no one seems to ever bother using them. Failing that PNGs are a better option for line drawings (you will get as good if not better compression as a JPEG without all the noise), but no one seems to know that.
