the ups and downs are battling hard on the parent comment. gotta admit, I had to think for a few seconds to get the gist of it, but its actualy pretty slick and perfectly snarky.
edit: only thought would be that an infinite selection of random data sets would be somewhat evenly split between compressable and non-compressable, but if you add compression structure, it tips the balance firmly into "file size increases" territory.
very cool little comment.
