There's nothing silly about this point. I think we should make it illegal for anyone to devise a new video format that doesn't lock audio to video. Instead, what we have for the last several years is a plethora of new codecs, not one of which makes any attempt at all to do this.
Perhaps this is a carryover from the old film days when sound and video were two separate things. But in fact, even on film, the audio *was* locked in place by virtue of being physically attached to the film.
