Question Brotli configuration (change)

Dukemaster

Regular Pleskian
Hi @UFHH01,
I wanted to ask You according to your great nginx with additional modules tutorial if You changed the "brotli types" in your updated version in such a comprehensive way? Or, another possibility would be that I added several types by myself. But I'm not sure about it.
To show the differences in a better way I've posted them together, first my (old) long configuration, then the (new) short configuration of your updated tutorial.

brotli_types text/html text/plain text/css application/javascript application/x-javascript text/xml application/xml application/xml+rss text/javascript image/x-icon image/vnd.microsoft.icon image/bmp image/svg+xml image/gif image/jpeg application/atom+xml image/png image/tiff image/x-ms-bmp application/font-woff application/json application/msword application/pdf application/postscript application/rtf application/vnd.apple.mpegurl application/vnd.ms-excel application/vnd.ms-fontobject application/vnd.ms-powerpoint application/vnd.wap.wmlc application/vnd.google-earth.kml+xml application/vnd.google-earth.kmz application/x-7z-compressed application/x-cocoa application/x-java-archive-diff application/x-perl application/x-rar-compressed application/x-shockwave-flash application/x-tcl application/x-x509-ca-cert application/xhtml+xml application/xspf+xml application/zip application/octet-stream audio/midi audio/mpeg audio/ogg audio/x-m4a audio/x-realaudio video/3gpp video/mp2t video/mp4 video/mpeg video/quicktime video/webm video/x-flv video/x-m4v video/x-mng video/x-ms-asf video/x-ms-wmv video/x-msvideo;
brotli_types text/html text/plain text/css application/javascript application/x-javascript text/xml application/xml application/xml+rss text/javascript image/x-icon image/vnd.microsoft.icon image/bmp image/svg+xml;

Perhaps the older additional types are "now" not necessary any longer?
Very often you say it's up to the user (e.g. me) how to configure.
But I wanted to ask You which is the best configuration without negative side effects to other configurations (perhaps gzip, or something else).

If your site does not assume the availability of content in the form of realaudio files, or google-earth.kmz files or something like that or even already compressed rar files - then why do you need to describe their types? For this forum, for example, I defined only brotly_types for file types which can be used here.
