The codec is designed to be **nearly lossless** for photon-limited data:
97-
- Mean absolute error: < 0.25 noise-sigma per pixel (for beta = 0.5)
97+
- Max absolute error: ~ 0.25 noise-sigma per pixel (for `beta=0.5`)

- Error scales with quantization (`beta` parameter)

- For default parameters (beta=0.5), the noise variance is increased by a ~1 % with respect to the original noise variance and no bias is introduced.
