Yes, they use to do it that way, but why should WE make any algorithm
mandatory at the decompressor. As you say yourself, the decompressor
can announce what resources it has, and the compressor decides what to
use based on that, but the decompressor does not have to announce any
available algorithms. If it does not, the compressor just do not have
any other choice than to download its own algorithm.

Simple and well defined solutions with few options are usually
preferable when making standards, at least in the IETF.
