WOFF1 has such a requirement[1] but it was removed from WOFF2, and since in WOFF2 we don’t compress tables individually the AT will need to compress the whole table data multiple times to measure the difference, or compress the individual affected table and hope that the compression ration will be the same when the table data is compressed (which might not be true for Brotli).
