FWIW on this, a quick boot test on the latest nightly looks to work fine, and I had a look at the 01/22 and 01/23 logs, they have the same number of packages and there's no obvious huge breakage...so it looks like we really did just gain 130MB of space for free, yay!
I did local local builds comparing the same set of packages for the Desktop and saw the same size change as confirming that the space was from using xz.
Presviously I had been doing my tests with sample games spins and while the savings were better in absolute terms, it was significantly less in relative terms.
