Well, I appreciate your work too! Nowhere have I said you aren't doing
good work with SquashFS. SquashFS has worked fairly well for Fedora's
live media for a long time. It's still the default for live media
creation in kiwi too. I have a lot of sympathy for you as SquashFS has
been the technology used for this sort of thing for 15 years and in
that time frame, you haven't gotten much help from anyone. Heck, I've
experienced what you're feeling fairly recently with some of my other
projects.

But taking this out on me isn't going to make any of this better. It
might even make things worse. This all started because OCI's usage of
tarballs to make "images" turned out to be a poor choice (which is no
real surprise), and they started looking at integrating some kind of
read-only filesystem for the layers. I don't even know why SquashFS
wasn't considered for OCI. Go talk to them and ask what it would take
to add support for SquashFS to OCI.
