I too was initially wondering that. A comparison with a similar camera to that of the Mars rovers would’ve been more interesting. We have much more capable cams here at home.
I actually think it's a sign of success, at least in one realm. We've been taking pictures of Earth from Mars for decades now. That it's a common enough thing that it could maybe be "mildly interesting" is an achievement.
I could see that, I just worry that leads to complacency rather than a broader interest. Of course we don’t have much history for this to grow from yet!
