zstd is used when you need fast compression speed, not the best ratio.

Maybe we can ask google and facebook to contribute their implementations?

And $$$ to support maintaining it over the years.

In the meantime, why can't you use modules on PyPI/github/wherever else? Why CPython stdlib should become an ugly ever-growing monster, siphoning, like a black hole, everything around?
