Richard,
BigTIFF doesn't have a formal status like classic TIFF, so its adoption
might be lower by non-libtiff-4.0-or-later based software, in
particularly outdated proprietary software.
BIGTIFF=IF_SAFER could be a reasonable compromise (BIGTIFF=IF_NEEDED is
the default behaviour, but not super appropriate when compression is used)
Even

Hi Devs,
In QGIS we have a GUI for gdal_translate, the "Georeferencer".
It was reported that when Georeferencing huge Tiffs (user was talking
about 8GB), that QGIS ended up with a broken 3.99GB Tiff, see
https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/issues/47362
One of the 'easy' solutions (on QGIS side) would be to *always* add
the BIGTIFF=yes option.
Question to you: would that hurt anybody? Is creating a BIGTIFF maybe
not preferable because of technical or user limitations?
Thanks for any pointers, or feel free to add it to the issue above.
Regards,
Richard Duivenvoorde
