While bzip2 used to be good in its heyday, it's been drastically eclipsed by newer algorithms. In no case it's a rational choice anymore -- at any point of the size-to-compression curve, there's something much better. As we control the build process, any .configs that still select it will harmlessly be adjusted, thus there's no risk of breakage.
Bare lzma is redundant with xz, lacks some improvements, and uses its own copy of code instead using the common library.
